Two wolves in all of us

[A friend of mine posted this on her Facebook status, and I decided to borrow it.]

An old Cherokee Indian told his grandson, “My son, there is a battle between two wolves inside us all. One is evil. It is Anger, Jealousy, Greed, Resentment, Inferiority, Lies, & Ego. The other is good. It is Joy, Peace, Love, Hope, Humility, Kindness, Empathy, & Truth.”

The boy thought & asked, “Grandfather, which wolf wins?”

The old man quietly replied, “The one you feed"
