THE TWO WOLVES

on

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that was going on inside himself.

He said, "My son, it is between 2 wolves. 
  • One is evil: Anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego... 
  • The other is good: 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 I feed."


"No man can serve two masters, because either he will hate one and love the other, or be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon!"  (Matthew 6:24)
