an old cherokee was teaching his grandchildren about life.
he said to them, "a battle is raging inside me...it is a terrible fight 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."
the old man fixed the children with a firm stare. "this same fight is going on inside of you, and inside of every other person, too."
they thought about it for a minute, and then one child asked his grandfather, "which wolf will win?"
the old cherokee replied: "the one you feed."
