One evening, an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside all people. He said, "My son, the battle is between the two 'wolves' inside us all. One wolf is Evil: It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.The other wolf is Good: It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth and compassion."The boy thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?" The old man simply replied, "The one you feed."
