Two Wolves - an email story:

Heidi received a forwarded email one day (haven't we all), and decided to open it. Inside was the folowing spiritual/practical story which she would like to share with you...

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."
