CHOICES - The Tale of Two Wolves

One evening an old Red Indian Chief 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 Chief simply replied, "The one you feed."


Thinking...thinking...thinking.....

This is such a lovely story: so simple and yet so true. What you think about and dwell upon will in a sense appear in your life and influence your behavior. Life is about making choices And decisions. We're faced with choices every day. Some are big, life-changing choices, but many are small, day-to-day ones. We also face with a choice whether to feed our soul with Godly values or with values of the world.

The crucial question is “Which one are choosing today to feed your soul”?
