TWO WOLVES



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."
