Which wolf do you feed?
An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”
He continued, “The other 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 – and inside every other person, too.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”
The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”
Pause and reflect
Can you spot the wolf you feed most?
How can you use this to help you?
Being mindful to catch yourself and shifting the narrative and feeding patterns.
Good luck.
This is a constant practice, but the key is to be aware and make better choices. Not easy and if you need help reach out to someone who can help you.
