One evening an old man told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "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 man simply replied . . . ,



"The one you feed.”

This was very touching to me, I have been sober since 2003 and I have tryed many aproaches to healing up the wounds in the past..mainly the wrong ways to deal with my guilt were dishonesty to both myself and others around me. This "2 Wolves" is exactly what I needed for inspiration, thank you very much.... MarkC.. Recovering alcoholic
