1. Very true. Consider that where a wolf finds no food, he moves on.
Thanks for posting this D. :hug:

3. That's not true for me. I wasn't very
hungry this evening, so I only ate one-and-a-half wolves... :9

Hope you tossed out the other half to the wolves...

5. Very clever
use of the taijitu. ☯ I've heard the parable before but the poster is new to me.

6. Sorrow is evil? All the rest, I totally get.
I like that, the 2 wolves, a lot. I sure have both and I sure do overfeed the wrong one.

17. I thought about that also ....
tblue

I can only assume that to feed the sorrow would be evil....
Does that make sense? The only answer I have...
You are not alone in overfeeding... I attempt to display some semblance of balance...
And get tippy...

9. It is a true sentiment.



In life, we create what we fear.

23. Indeed.



Sometimes our suffering becomes too familiar and the fear of change ends up holding us back.
Sometimes we need to let just let go of all that mess. Just let go.

24. A Native American story that holds lots of truth.
You can live your life how you want, but you have to choose your moral path..........

25. This is true....
AverageJoe90

I've always said 'life is a moral dilemma'
It truly is.

Here's the site I found after the initial post....
I knew it was Native American...
