I get a lot of forwards on e-mail - good thoughts, wishes, funny stories, old wives tales, hoaxes, etc. But I got one today that was really good, a stop-in-your-tracks thought provoker. And after reading it, my only thought is - Lord, please let me feed the right wolf at all times. I just had to share it here with you.
Two Wolves
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.'
