TWO WOLVES
"One evening an old Cherokee Indian 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 Indian simply replied, 'The one you feed'."

This story has such a good lesson. We do have a choice which wolf we feed. It is our decision to make.
Have a wonderful, peace-filled day!
