One evening an old Lakota
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 has anger, envy, jealousy, doubt, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance,
self pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and
ego."
He continued, "The other is good. It has joy, peace, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, forgiveness, truth, compassion, and
faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute, and then asked his grandfather,
“Which wolf wins?"
The old Lakota simply replied, “The one you feed.”
