Cherokee Proverb

A Cherokee grandfather sitting with his grandchildren told them,
"In 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:
he is 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"

This proverb reminds me of Matthew 15 where Jesus reminds us that out of our hearts flow both the good and bad wolf.
