Which wolf are you feeding?
Which wolf are you feeding?
I once heard a fable about a Navajo woman who told her grandson a story about two wolves that live inside of us, constantly battling one another. It starts with the grandmother sitting her grandson down and explaining to him that “one of the wolves is jealous, has envy in his soul, is malicious, and has a scarcity mindset. To that wolf, everything in the world is wrong and unpleasant. He believes that people are mostly bad, things are no good, and that the world is a cold place. As you can imagine, nothing good ever happens for that wolf because it is a negative, pessimistic animal, always seeing things as glass-half empty.”
Then the woman says to her grandson, “But you also have a different, powerful wolf that lives inside of you. This wolf has empathy, love, compassion, positivity, and knows it can accomplish anything it puts its heart and soul into. This wolf sees the bright side of everything and constantly sees things glass-half full. And grandson, this wolf, the powerful wolf, can take you to so many amazing places.”
Then the grandson looks at grandmother and says, “Well, which wolf wins the battle, grandma?”
She replies, “The one you feed, grandson. The one you feed.”
Moral of the story
We all have the bad wolf, or the villain, living inside of us, but we also have this hero just waiting to be released.
