The Fight Inside

      An old Cherokee is teaching
​his grandson about life.
     He said, "​My son, a fight is going on inside of me."
     "It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego."
     He continued, "The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
​     The same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too."
     The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather,
     "Which wolf will win?"
     The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."
