One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside 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 old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”

I am keenly interested in social issues and their pragmatic solutions; and am all for cleaner and greener Earth inhabitated by "healthy" and "happy" people. Also a keen practitioner of meditation for several years -- in fact, it is my lifeline; it has helped me survive life threatening tragedies in the past. Currently, a significant part of my time and earning goes towards managing some chronic illnesses of last 15-20 years. I would love to devote more time on this blog once I become healthier and financially secure. You can support this blog through Paypal contribution at this email ID: goodpal.goodpal@yahoo.com.
