Why Do This?
A few personal reasons.
One, to gain fluency in the language of my subjective inner experience.
Two, to spend time with content that will help me grow.
Three, stay in touch with friends and build a collective of like-minded travelers.
Now here’s a story:
One 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."
This is my attempt to feed the good wolf.
