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."

Very nice post. I'm glad I stumbled across your blog today.
Devil inside....devil inside....(song?)
evil wolf is always so friggin hungry....the other wolf seems to be on a carb free diet
The bear inside me killed the two wolves.
Now I just want to hibernate and eat fish and honey.
