The Black Wolf & The White Wolf

"...Grandfather said, "let me tell you a story.
 
I too, at times, have felt a great hate for those
that have taken so much, with no sorrow
for what they do. But hate wears you down,
and does not hurt your enemy. It is like
taking poison and wishing your enemy
would die.

I have struggled with these feelings
many times.
 
It is as if there are two wolves inside me,
one is White and one is Black.

The White Wolf is good and does no harm.
He lives in harmony with all around him and
does not take offense when no offense was
intended. But will only fight when it is right
to do so, and in the right way.

But, the Black Wolf, is full of anger.
The littlest thing will set him into a fit
of temper. He fights everyone, all the time,
for no reason. He cannot think because his
anger and hate are so great. It is helpless
anger, for his anger will change nothing.

Sometimes it is hard to live with these two
wolves inside me, for both of them try to
dominate my spirit."
 
The boy, looked intently into his
Grandfathers eyes, and asked, "Which one
wins Grandfather?"
 
The Grandfather, smiled and said,
 
"The one I feed."

Our subconscious can guide us more efficiently than any supernatural pursuit we may chase.

? what do you mean?

DarkenedMind:
I like that. I am partial Mohawk by the way. If you don't get it, a little tip. Don't just read it, but feel it, know it, nurture the words in your mind and it's pretty clear.

aliannanerakon:
i see what you mean. it seems very clear to me that somehow a representaion of this story has come to life. maybe because of you?

DarkenedMind:
Run that by me again?
