One evening, an old Native American was speaking to his grandson about the battle that occasionally takes place inside each of us. He explained that there are two wolves in each of us:
- There is the Dark Wolf. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sadness, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, lies, pride, and ego. Then there is the White Wolf. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, and compassion.
After thinking about it for a moment, the grandson asks:
-
Grandpa, which wolf wins?
Grandpa simply replies to her: -
The one you feed.
