One evening, sitting by the campfire, an old Cherokee Chief told his grandson about the battle of life. He said,"My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all.

One wolf is called 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 called Good - It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought for a moment and then asked, "Which wolf wins, Grandfather?"

The old Chief simply replied, "The one you feed."
