TWO  WOLVES  

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.”

  1. There just may be a Third Wolf…The overSoul Wolf…the One who watches from a neutral position…The One that eventually helps in Blending the 2 others… ;)
