~Two wolves locked inside a struggle~
Date: 11/8/2008 2:10:23 PM ( 16 y ) ... viewed 11633 times Cherokee Grandfather was teaching about life. He began, "A fight is going on inside me... it is a terrible fight between two wolves."
The story went on to show how one wolf represented fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. -- The other wolf stood for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
He ended the story saying .... "This same fight is going on inside you, and inside every other person, too."
The children thought about it for a minute and then one child asked the Grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"
The old man replied, "The one you feed."
