Hi Steemians.
Since I wrote my final paper about the worth of positive thinking I wanted to share my favourite metaphor with you. Itâs about how every person can affect their own mind. If you feed your inner demons, youâre following a downward spiral, but if youâre looking for the sun youâll end up in a upward spiral. Read the metaphor below the happy picture and tell me what you think about it. :)
âOne 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.""
