Two Wolves

A Cherokee grandfather is teaching his grandson about life. He says:

'There is a fight going on inside me. It is a terrible fight between two wolves.

One is evil: he is anger, envy, greed, arrogance, selfpity, resentment, and superiority.

The other is good: he is joy, peace, love, hope, humility, generosity and compassion.

This same fight is going on inside you, and every other person too.'

The grandson thinks for a minute, and then asks his grandfather, 'Which wolf will win?'

The old Cherokee simply replies: 'The one we feed.'
