Two wolves
An elder was teaching his Native American grandchildren about life. He said to them, "a fight is going on inside me. It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego."
"The other stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."
"This same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, too," he added.
The grandchildren thought about it for a moment and then one child asked the grandfather, "which wolf will win?"
The old Cherokee simply replied -- "The one you feed."
