The Tale an old Cherokee chief supposedly told his grandson. The chief said:
"A fight is going on inside me. It is a terrible battle -- between two wolves. One wolf represents fear, anger, pride, envy, lust, greed, arrogance, self-pity, resentment, lies and cruelty.
"The other wolf stands for honesty, kindness, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, friendship, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.
"This same fight is going on inside you, and inside every other person, too," he added.
The grandson reflected on these words for a minute and then asked his grandfather,
"Which wolf will win?"
The old chief simply replied,
"The one you feed."

Our Spirits and Our Bodies.
There are two of us here and one of us is starving!
Have you ever looked at a dead person in a casket? Isn't it strange to see their body lying there and realize they are gone?
The truth is - the real person has departed from their flesh; they've left their shell of a body like a snake sheds his skin and leaves it behind.
The snake is still traveling but he doesn't need that old dead skin anymore.
While our bodies are still alive, we feed, water, groom, and exercise it.
We spend a lot of time on our bodies.
This is talking about our flesh.
The other part of us - our spirit - doesn't get a whole lot of attention unless we make a point to pay attention to it.

Our spirit is the hidden part of us--but it’s the REAL us.
Our spirit is the part that keeps on living after our bodies are dead.
Our spirit need to be fed and nurtured because when our bodies die, it is the only thing left, it is the real us!
That's why it is called eternal life.
