Two Wolves

My forwarding friend sends me all sorts of e-mails that I usually delete, but occasionally she sends one worth sharing!
Two wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, " My son, 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. "
