A tale of two wolves is an old Cherokee Indian legend that illustrates the constant battle we fight within ourselves on where we spend our energy - good or evil. One version goes like this:

​
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.”


Which wolf do you feed regularly?
What are some practices you might take on or drop to ensure "Good" always wins?
How can a gratitude perspective help you?
