two wolves, and a positive outlook:
A Cherokee elder sitting with his grandchildren
told them, “In every life there is a terrible fight –
a fight between two wolves. One is evil: he is
fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
resentment, and deceit. The other is good: joy,
serenity, humility, confidence, generosity, truth,
gentleness, and compassion.” A child asked,
“Grandfather, which wolf will win?” The elder
looked him in the eye. “The one you feed.”

I'm making a conscious effort to feed the right wolf for the next five days.
