Inner fight...

[SandEagle]

a story i just told my kids.....feel free to tell it to yours.


“a fight is going on inside me," said an old man to his son. "it is a terrible fight
between two wolves. one wolf is evil. he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed,
arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority,
and ego. the other wolf is good. he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. the
same fight is going on inside you."

the son thought about it for a minute and then asked, "which wolf will win?"
the old man replied simply, "the one you feed.”

Sounds like good advice to me.

Most "wisdom" is obvious, and whole religions have formed around stuff a retard can grasp without issue. It's an interesting story that reaffirms the obvious to keep it in thought.
