ONE EVENING AN OLD CHEROKEE NATIVE AMERICAN WAS TEACHING HIS GRANDSON ABOUT LIFE. HE SAID 'MY SON A BATTLE IS GOING ON INSIDE ME. IT IS A TERRIBLE FIGHT AND IT IS BETWEEN TWO WOLVES. ONE WOLF REPRESENTS FEAR, ANGER, ENVY, SORROW, REGRET, AND GREED, ARROGANCE, SELF PITY, GUILT, RESENTMENT, INFERIORITY, LIES, FALSE PRIDE, AND SUPERIORITY. THE OTHER WOLF STANDS FOR JOY, PEACE, LOVE, HUMILTY, KINDNESS, BENEVOLENCE, FRIENDSHIP, EMPATHY, GENEROSITY, TRUTH, COMPASSION AND FAITH. THE SAME FIGHT IS GOING ON INSIDE OF YOU AND EVERY OTHER PERSON TOO.
THE GRANDSON THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR A MOMENT AND THEN ASKED HIS GRANDFATHER: "WHICH WOLF WINS?" THE OLD CHEROKEE SIMPLY REPLIED, "THE ONE I FEED".
