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, 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."
