[Fwd: [Fwd: [Fwd: Of The Day!]]] - 'Two Wolves'

[dwgm]

An old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside all people. He said, ”the battle is between two wolves inside us all".

"One is Evil - It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

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

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"

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

Oh, my word! Thank you--I've been frogging around and just opened and found this treat! Appreciate it--it's going to work with me for those mollygrubbies I occasionally experience in my life.

Don't we all! It does seem a bit of wisdom to treasure.
