Two Wolves
One evening a man told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside all people. He said, 'My son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other is Good.. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: 'Which wolf wins?
The man simply replied, 'The one you feed.'

We all have personal imperfections.. nobody's unique.. helping one another with problem areas can be used to help each of us grow; struggles can be a good thing. Love those around you, treat them as you would want to be treated, become more holy.
Ask yourself.. am I showing the same level of compassion as I would like to receive.. and then go above and beyond that! If we all thought about others as being more important than ourselves, the world would be that much more enjoyable :)
