Old Lessons !


An old Cherokee told his grandson:

“My son, there’s a battle between two wolves inside us all.
One is EVIL.
It’s anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies and ego.
The other is GOOD.
It’s joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness & truth.”

The boy though about it, and asked:
“Grandfather, which wolf wins?”

The old man quietly replied:
“THE ONE YOU FEED.”





  PS - Sometimes, all we need is a reminder to the old lessons ! :)

    1. Hahahaa... well, thats sure going to make me think ! ;)
      but on a serious note, we feed the bad one regularly...without realizing, while it takes effort and realization to feed the good one ! :)

      Cheers !

  3. It is a constant battle. At times food is not the only source such sides gain the energy from.
