One day a native American feeling his end was near, spoke to his grandson, " You know, Haika, deep in my soul there are two big wolves that fight incessantly " ......."Why are they fighting grandfather ?" asked the boy....... " Because they can't agree " replied the old man ..." Two powerful wolves " he continued " one represents love, compassion, inspiration, wisdom & alturism while the other fights for hate, greed, doubt, ignorance & selfishness "
" Do they ever stop fighting ? " asked the boy ....." No never" replied the grandfather " & they fight in you too" he continued ......" In me ? " asked the boy ......." yes in you & every person you will ever cross on this earth."
" But grandfather, you who know so much...............which wolf will win ? " inquired the boy.................................the old man thought for a while then replied " the one you feed "
