Once upon a time, there was a grandfather who was having a conversation with his grandson. The grandfather said to the boy, “There are two wolves fighting inside of me. One wolf is filled with anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other wolf is filled with joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.”
The boy thought about this for a moment and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”
The grandfather replied, “The one you feed.”
Moral of the Story
This story teaches us that we have a choice in life. We can choose to focus on negativity and feed the wolf of anger, envy, and sorrow, or we can choose to focus on positivity and feed the wolf of joy, peace, and love. The story reminds us that our thoughts and actions have consequences and that it is up to us to choose which wolf we want to feed. We have the power to shape our own lives by choosing to focus on the good and positive aspects of life.
