The Two Wolves - A Parable

Here's a astonishing Native American parable for you:

One of the Elders was teaching the young grandchildren about life one day and this is the story he told:

The Wolves

"There is a fight going on inside of me approximately each and every day... It's a terrible fight, in the middle of two wolves. One wolf is full of fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self pity, guilt, resentMent, inferiority, lies and pride. The other wolf is full of joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, truth, compassion and faith. This one prefers not to fight, but in order to survive, it must."

The Two Wolves - A Parable

"This same fight is going on inside of you and all people." He said.

The grandchildren belief for awhile and one asked, "Which one will win Grandfather?"

The old man replied, "The one I feed..."

We have the delight of interacting with many habitancy in the policy of a day, and we've all dealt with the ones who tend to feed the first wolf in the parable. They seem to enjoy sharing the darker side of their personality and to disregard the feelings of the other person.

The Recipient sometimes feels they must "react" in a way that maybe they would authentically rather not or, they become hurt because they believe the unkind man has the power to make them feel bad, (but they don't really). Far best to set the 'the more mighty wolf' on them and react with kindness and compassion.

That normally just ticks them off, those hurtful, inconsiderate ones, but what can you do? Just smile! maybe your kindness may one day teach them to 'feed the more mighty wolf' as well. Survival of the fittest and all that! Only the strong survive! Law of Nature! We shall overcome.

You know if you allow habitancy or the events in your life to sway your emotions by allowing them to get under your skin and just plain ticking you off, you are, in reality, allowing them to determine your very state of consciousness and in effect, allowing them to operate your life.

Don't do that! Why in the world would you give anybody operate of your emotions? Begin to feed the right wolf, he will be your faithful companion and safe all the rest of your days. Just a quick belief for you today... Be strong... Be gentle... Hell, just be... And breathe!!!
