The Two Wolves Within
An old Grandfather said to his grandson, who came to him with anger at a friend who had done him an injustice...

11
The Two Wolves Within

• "Let me tell you a story. I too, at times, have
  felt great hate for those who have taken so much,
  with no sorrow for what they do. But hate wears
  you down, and does not hurt your enemy. It's like
  taking poison and wishing your enemy would die."

12
The Two Wolves Within

• "I have struggled with these feelings many times.
  It is as if there are two wolves inside me one
  is good and does no harm. He lives in harmony
  with all around him and does not take offense
  when no offense was intended. He will only fight
  when it is right to do so, and in the right way.

13
The Two Wolves Within

• But...the other wolf... ah! The littlest thing
  will send him into a fit of temper. He fights
  everyone, all of the time, for no reason. He
  cannot think because his anger and hate are so
  great. It is helpless anger, for his anger will
  change nothing."

14
The Two Wolves Within

• "Sometimes it is hard to live with these two
  wolves inside me, for both of them try to
  dominate my spirit." The boy looked intently
  into his Grandfather's eyes and asked, "Which one
  wins, Grandfather?" The Grandfather smiled and
  quietly said,
• "The one I feed."-- -- A Native American tale
  told many times around the Sacred Fire
