An old Cherokee was talking to his grandson, “There’s a fight between two wolves going on inside me.”

“It’s a terrible fight.  One wolf is filled with greed, hate, lust, anger, shame, guilt, and ego.”

He continued, “The other wolf is filled with peace, joy, love, abundance, truth, serenity, humility, and faith.  The same fight is going on inside you, and everyone else, too.”

The boy thought about what his grandfather said. “Which wolf will win?” he asked.

The old Cherokee replied “the one you feed.”
