anisha sipporah - Two Wolf Within Us

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that
goes on inside people.

He said, 'My son, the battle is between 2 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, gene
rosity, 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.'
