One evening an old Choctaw 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 God - 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 Choctaw simply replied, "The one you feed."
