Spiritually Speaking

An elderly Cherokee Indian was teaching his grandchildren about Life. He said to them

"A fight is going on inside me; it's a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

One wolf is: fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.

The other wolf is: joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth compassion and faith.

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

They thought about it for a minute, then one child asked his grandfather: "Which wolf will win"

The old Cherokee simply said: "The one you feed".
