Indian Proverb- origin unknown:

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between 2 "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."

Note from the author: "Books are portable magic to enjoy at will. Time travel to another century, enter a world where vampires and werewolves roam and step into the realm where fallen angels convene. It's sure to be an adventure you'll not regret." ~Karen Michelle Nutt
