there is a battle of.two wolves inside all of us.
one, is evil it is anger.jealousy,greed.resentment,lies,and ego.
the other is good,it is joy,peace, love hope ,humility,kindness,empathy,and trust.
the one that wins?~~~~~~~~the one you choose to feed. ;)

I may have read this before. Where did u get this from
-
just an old Cherokee proverb. :D
-
I've heard it from many sources, including Inuit.
As a side note, I have often been guilty of letting both wolves live in me. Now it is later in life and I realize I never had enough for both. I hope it's not too late for the one I learned to love.

Robert Frost I feel borrowed greatly from Native American traditions when he penned:
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Love that poem since the first time I read it. I have found in my life that that path proved most interesting. ' Frank

Never cared for Frost all that much when I was a kid, and was forced to listen to him, and his poems didn't make a lot of sense then. I have since given him a bit more respect. Cipriano, I am known for that. Even wolves like beer! ;) Cipriano, send me a pm with your address. I will send you a knife, but you have to agree to get Diego the 20 gauge . ;) In fact I will send you two, and you can keep one for yourself, and one for Diego to go with his 20 gauge. ;)
