Feeding the Right Wolf

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


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


“The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.”


The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather,
“Which wolf wins?”


The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”
