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, 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."



PEACE

It does not mean to be in a place
where there is no noise, trouble or hard work

It means to be in the midst of those things
and still be calm in your heart



Courage is not the absence of fear
but rather,
the judgment that something else is more important than fear
