One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a 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 Cherokee simply replied, 'The one you feed.'

Nice. This is certainly true. Not always easy, however.
That was a fine tale, as good as the best Aesop1!
Mmmm my black Wolf has been getting a decent feed of late
