A story recounted on another board I frequent:

----------------------------------------------------------
An old Cherokee is telling his grandson about a fight that is going on inside himself.

He said it is between 2 wolves. One is evil: Anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.... The other is good: 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 Cherokee simply replied, "The one I feed."

Oh how true!!!! :rolleyes: Nice hidden moral to this story, one that perhaps we all ought to think about before acting on any of these emotions :)

Basically be careful if you feed wolves or they'll have your hand off! :)

or
if you feed the positive, you will be positive
if you feed the negative, you will be negative
