Two Wolves - A Cherokee Parable

Native Wisdom

An old Cherokee chief was 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, self-doubt, and ego."The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. "This 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 chief simply replied, "The one you feed."

Greetings To All, i come in peace...

Normally, i do not comment on all the messages that i am posting, until someone replied or have responded to them, but in this case, i must.

Most people do not understand, what is the meaning of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde, b'coz this is a book written by Robert Louis Stevenson and is a book recommended, by our school for Literature class.

In short, Dr. Jekyll is the Good wolf and Mr. Hyde is the Bad wolf, and when i found this Native Cherokee Wisdom, i was reinforced in the knowledge of the characteristics and personality of being Human, and i simply adore this wisdom as it teaches us to Feed only the Good, to make us stronger, to be more friendly, compassionate, kind, curteous, polite, understanding, sympathy, emphathy, lovingkindness and so forth, to everyone we meet, and for ourselves too, either in Salvation or for our own good Karma.

Furthermore, this story teaches us not to be too critical of ourselves, as we are born this way, but in order to change the world or the people surrounding us, we have to start with ourselves, and the change must start with us.

Herewith is the url/website that i found for you to peruse, but my message to all of u, is not to let Mr. Hyde, takeover or overcome u:-

Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

PlatoGreek author & philosopher in Athens (427 BC - 347 BC)

P/S - Here, i must emphasize on something...not everybody is totally bad, not even in criminals, as i have learnt that criminals came from broken homes, and in one movie, about a condemned criminal awaiting the electric chair, even he has the love and compassion for a rat he reared, and which has become a dear friend to him and he revived him, after an evil prison officer killed the rat.

Does anyone or anybody remember the title of this movie, as i recommend everyone and everybody to watch it, as it is very touching and moving, to me?

Thanks to All,
