Two Wolves
A Cherokee elder sitting with his grandchildren told them, “In every life there is a terrible fight – a fight between two wolves.
One is evil: he is fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity, resentment, and deceit. The other is good: joy, serenity, humility, confidence, generosity, truth, gentleness, and compassion.”
A child asked,
“Grandfather, which wolf will win?” The elder looked him in the eye.
“The one you feed.”
Development of good character depends on everyday choices one makes.
