Hungry Wolves
Native American Wisdom. The Author is Unknown
A Grandfather is visiting with his grandchildren teaching them about the difference between good and bad, positive and negative. The Grandfather tells his grandchildren, “There is a good wolf and a bad wolf living inside each of us. The good wolf is love, compassion, courage, generosity, fortitude, discipline, laughter and every worthy virtue a human being is capable of. The bad wolf is anger, hatred, jealousy, envy, greed, doubt, despair, darkness. These two wolves are in a fierce battle in all of us”.

The children hardly able to contain their anticipation, ask eagerly,
“Which wolf wins Grandfather!?”
The Grandfather responds simply; “The one you feed”
