Two wolves...
« on: October 04, 2009, 04:24:43 pm »
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.

Hay thanks

Thats brilliant, and may help me with my studies, as my tutor loves things like that to explain
the motivation of people and how their thoughts affect their behaviour.

Any more gratefully received  ;D ;D ;D
