    Don't Feed The Wolf

    Two Wolves
    One winter’s evening whilst gathered round a blazing camp fire, an old Sioux Indian chief told his grandson about the inner struggle that goes on inside people.

    “You see” said the old man, “this inner struggle is like two wolves fighting each other. One is evil, full of anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, deceit, false pride, superiority, and ego”.

    “The other one,” he continued, poking the fire with a stick so that the fire crackled, sending the flames clawing at the night sky, “is good, full of joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith”.




    For a few minutes his grandson pondered his grandfather’s words and then asked, “So which wolf wins, grandfather?”

    “Well”, said the wise old chief, his lined face breaking into a wry smile, “The one you feed!”
