Battle inside us all

[Bigfoot Mike]

Here's one that you all have probably heard, but does not make it any less good.

One evening an wise 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 wise old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

Mike, thanks.

I have a friend who is going through some tough times, and he and I discussed this very issue last night. I sent him this bit of wisdom this morning.
