An interesting conversation was going on between the grandfather and his grandson. The small child asks as to how do we become a good person in life. His mentor replied "My son, the battle is constantly between two wolves. One is Evil. It is anger, envy, 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."
And then the master-question been asked by the little kid "Which wolf wins, grandpa?"
His grandpa simply replied, "The one you feed."
Let us all make an honest attempt to feed the good wolf in us and let the other being starve to death. Stay connected to what is right and the right will pave to more rights in our world.

A nice and thoughtful post. It tells how important it is to make the right choices in our life to be a good person. Circumstances and situations in our life may at times make the "Evil wolf" in us to surface, but i guess in the end, its the way one reacts/deals during such a period and the choice one makes at such times that makes one a good or a bad person. Hopefully, if we can try and make the Good is us supremely strong and +ve everytime, then whenever the Evil in us starts to grow, the Good destroys and conquers it always!
I'd feed myself rather than feeding the wolves yaar ....cmon I've heard that wolves taste good ....hahaha...
On a serious note , I surely think that your post certainly brings out the one simple fact which most of us deny to admit - all bad outcomes might directly/indirectly be a result of our current/past actions and behaviours. Feeding of the good wolf leads to being good and getting good in return and vice versa.
Nice post, keep 'em flowing..
Jai ho ...
simple yet very true fact...
