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 replied simply, “The one you feed.”

H-m-m… There’s actually a poem associated with that story you tell. It goes like this:
Two dogs fight within my breast–
The one is cursed, the other blest.
The one I love, the one I hate;
The one I feed will dominate.
