Two


I was reminded of this which Tammy shared with me years ago. I think (I know) sometimes I feed the wrong wolf.

Cherokee Wisdom
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, 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."


I don't usually put up political comments on the board but this was just to perfect not to share.


Be loved, jcs
