One evening an old sage told his grandson a story about the 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 sage simply replied, "The one you feed."
