A wise Cherokee, teaching his grandchild about about life tells this story:
“A fight is going on inside me. It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.
“The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
“The same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person too.”
When his grandchild asks: “Which wolf will win?”
The wise Cherokee simply replies: “The one that you feed.”
