an old cherokee indian was speaking to his grandson: "a fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy. "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. the other is good -- he is joy, peace,love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity,truth, compassion, and faith. this same fight is going on inside you, and inside every other person, too." the grandson thought about it for a long minute, and then asked his grandfather, "which wolf will win?" the old cherokee simply replied, "the one you feed."
