The Two Wolves

Something just inspired me to add this in.....

The Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all....

One is Evil; It is anger, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.

One is Good; It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about this for a minute and then asked his Grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

.........Probably because it made me realise that all this time, I having been "feeding" the wrong beast!
