SOME PEOPLE SAY THERE ARE TWO WOLVES INSIDE EACH OF US. THERE IS A CONSTANT BATTLE BETWEEN THOSE TWO WOLVES AND YOU DECIDE THE WINNER.
TSALI, AN OLD CHIEF OF THE CHEROKEES (a tribe of North American Indians that lived in the Southeast of the United States), OFTEN WALKS ALONG THE STREAM NEAR THE VILLAGE WITH HIS GRANDSON. THEY DO THAT ALMOST EVERY DAY. THE OLD MAN KNOWS A LOT OF STORIES FULL OF ADVENTURE OR WISDOM AND THE BOY LOVES TO LISTEN TO THEM.
THIS MORNING TSALI DECIDES TO TELL THE BOY ABOUT A BATTLE THAT SOMETIMES HAPPENS INSIDE HIMSELF. THE OLD MAN SAYS, “THIS BATTLE IS BETWEEN TWO WOLVES. ONE IS EVIL: cruelty, hate, anger, envy, despair, greed, arrogance, guilt, lies, resentment, inferiority, superiority, and ego.”
THE OLD INDIAN STOPS FOR A MOMENT AND THEN SAYS, “THE OTHER IS GOOD: “joy, peace, love, hope, empathy, friendship, serenity, humility, kindness, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith…”
THE BOY IS FILLED WITH CURIOSITY. HE LOOKS AT HIS GRANDFATHER AND ASKS, “WHAT HAPPENS THEN? WHICH WOLF WINS?”
TSALI JUST SMILES AND ANSWERS, “THE ONE I FEED.”
