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