An old
Cherokee describes an experience going on inside himself...
«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. This same fight is going on
inside you - and inside every other person, too.»
The grandson
thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, «Which wolf will
win?»
The old
Cherokee simply replied, «The one you feed»
