Two Wolves

Which one to feed?

The one who is fed the most will have the power. Sometimes I don’t know which one to feed. I like to think that my serene wolf is all powerful and wise. He keeps me balanced and centered, loving and compassionate. My angry wolf, full of hostility and frustration, creeps out from behind and seems to overtake serene wolf, biting and growling to win. It’s scary, but he must do that for his own peace of mind. Of course it’s obvious who gets fed the most, who has the most to gain; but angry wolf must be allowed scraps enough to gentle his anger and pain.

Battle of the wolves

Each person has two wolves to themselves. One wolf that is kind and compassionate and the other is of hostility and anger. We must feed one that we choose to follow but still giving small pieces of food here and there just to ease his conscious.

Loving kindness to ourselves

This great short story is about loving and accepting all parts and emotions of ourselves.

Did not resonate

I did not feel any connection to this story. Maybe I'm just not fathoming the concept? The only conflict I feel inside myself is neither wild nor feral. It's far more subtle and human.

All Human

I learned that, even though there’s a battle going on inside of us, its ultimately our choice, which wolf to feed. We are in charge of the wolves, but it never hurts to get another perspective into the picture, as they can see clearly, which wolf has been fed the most.

Battle within ourselves

I felt like this really shows that we can’t let one or the the other. Hate or love take over because if we do we lose certain feelings that help us be human and ourselves and it’s ok to have off days because we are human and that shows our humanity.

Amazing

It kind of explained my story and struggle I’m going with. Because I deal with bullies, and this helped me get through.

Two wolves

This is my first time using the story part of aura. This was an amazing story. It helped me to understand that anger and frustration are a necessary part of life as long as you don’t let it consume you. You must chose which wolf to feed and which wolf will be shown but you can not have one without the other.

Wolves

Two wolves inside, one positive, one negative, battling. Equal power and strength, whichever one you feed the most is the one that will win.

I felt relaxed and momentarily peaceful by the end of the story.

I’d like to learn tips for feeding my compassionate wolf. I feel fear that my mind is too often- spent feeding my defensive, jealous and angry wolf.

Try One

I felt that’s this was calming and got my mind off of school for a while.

I felt relaxed

I learned that I need to feed all areas of my mind ,body and soul equally in order to live a balanced life. Different areas are hungry for different things.

The words

I learned that there are going to be times when they are really hard and you might make the wrong choices, but that doesn’t mean you have to give up. You can push forward and still be happy. Hating the way you act bad, can be even worse. Your hating the same kind. It would be no use for that.

My Plan

I learned that there is always a battle going on inside of me. I need to work on a plan to cope with this life long test.

Day 2

I learned that it’s okay to be sad/angry/emotional as long as I don’t let it consume me

April 20 2018

I learned that we don’t just act up we chose to act up so feed the loving wolf or you don’t know the loving one may die

Gaining control

I learned that I need to recognize and own my feelings in order to have better control over what I am projecting to others, and how I am projecting myself to others.. I need to except myself entirely, not just the pieces I pick & choose, but all aspects and all personality traits. I need to become familiar with the parts of me that may be negative because if I am to have control over them, I must first accept and learn to understand where they come from and what triggers them

Day 1

I just woke up and did a quick story. I felt distracted since I am going out to chores, but hope to do better in the future.

Day 1

I learned that when I’m angry that’s ok, just focus on what’s causing the anger and try to control it. I was a bit distracted, but it’s my first day.

Two Wolves

I learned that it’s okay to have anger inside of you, as long as you don’t try to deny it. You can work with the negatives to balence with the positives.

Two Wolves

I learned that I am indeed feeding to wolves and I can learn from both and decide. Thank you for this story

I didn’t understand the story.

That didn’t stop me from trying. I noticed that it was trying to get a new pack leader. The only way to decide was who ate more. It wasn’t their personality🐾🐺

What my eyes see

It’s the way I view situations and how I respond is what really matters

Two wolves

I felt good hearing this because I was so worried about something and the story made it dissipate

Two wolves

You have to balance emotions out or else all seems to fall

Two wolves

This helped me learn that I can’t try to get rid of my hateful side because that will make me hate more. But instead to make my peaceful side grow bigger and stronger then my hateful side.

two wolves

don’t try to defeat your bad wolf just feed your good one more and it will become strong enough to defeat it

Two Wolves

It’s ok to have a good an a bad wolf. Parts of you that you are proud of and parts not so much. Tomorrow I am not going to feed my bad wolf while I take my ACT. I do not need the negativity of my bad wolf at this moment of great stress and anxiety. Wish me luck. 🙏🏼

Balance

One thing we need to recognize it that we each need both wolves. There is a time and a place for anger, when properly directed it can be a powerful tool. We can’t just go through life suppressing our anger. But we can’t be angry all the time either. We have to recognize that both are present and both have a purpose.

What I learned

I learned that one wolf in me is kind gentle one and the other wolf is the anger wolf. I learned that if I stop getting into fist fights and fighting others I will stop feeding the anger wolf and there will be more of a valence.

Peaceful

That we need to have balance in our lifes! If we don't we can literally throw our kids and family into unbearable circumstances and even Caos. We need to remember to breathe in and out before we speak or lash out in order to maintain ones Inner balance.

Seriously i felt more awake this was a fail

I learned to never try this story again And it doesn’t make sense aura is not working for me i dont mean to be negative but 🤷🏼‍♀️

Remembered it from 12 monkeys (TV series)

In episode six season one, James Cole tells Aaron Marker about the story of “the two Wolves”. It’s a good life lesson though, it really gets me!

Diet, day 2

I’be been so angry lately for so many reasons. Now I’m going to acknowledge my anger and feelings. I’m going to stop feeding the wrong wolf.

Wolves

I learned that I need to accept my anger, and that it is a part of me. But I am in control of it.

Two wolves

We really do have two sides each other.. and I pray each day I feed the softer loving, and patient wolf within myself every day 😊💕

Two wolves

I learned that we are in constant battles within ourselves and we have to choose which side of us prevails in the battle.

I felt from listening to Auro it has calmed mw

I learned listening to auro it has taught me no to take things for granted....

Two wolves

I learned that it really is up to me. So many people have told me that I can choose my mood and what I do with my thought. This confirms it for me.

Two wolves

I’m anxious around an old friend, we’re no longer friends, but listening to the tale of two wolves makes me remember to feed the kind wolf. Let go of the anger. We have paths that lead to different ends. That’s ok.

Catergories

Sticking to the metaphor at hand, you cannot choose which wolf to feed. There are not two wolves, only your one mind where all your characteristics live. If you don’t take care of your mind, you will never control the parts of yourself you choose to feed.

Two wolves

Feeding the more desirable wolf in me will help neutralize the less desirable wolf

Learn

I felt like I learned that even if someone else if different, it doesn’t mean you need to push them away.

Two Wolves Lesson

I learned that the key to tranquility is the perfect balance of emotion.

My daughter

I noticed I was calm when I listened to aura stories. So for this one I was calm and a little surprised when I heard I had two wolves inside of me. 😮

I liked it

I loved this! This helped me get rid of my anxiety! Thank you for doing this!

I felt relaxed, and once I turned this on, I immediately loved it💗

I learned that you need to balance both of your wolfs, and not feed one more.

Take a break

I listened to this while I took a break from my work which was causing me stress and it just helped me relax. These stories are very soothing and helpful.

Two Wolves

I learned that I am not alone in feeling like I have both a negative and positive self-critical voice in my head. Too often, when I get stressed out, I allow my “negative” critic to control my thoughts which lead me to feel intense anxiety, self-doubt, and feelings of not being good enough. I need to be more aware when that voice chimes in, and block it out, and let the “positive self-critic voice” chime in so I can learn from the situation and grow from it and be my own best cheerleader instead of my own worst enemy. This was a very short, sweet and inspiring story with such an important moral to reflect on.

Two Wolves

What I got out this story is that it is important to experience and feel but be aware of our intentions , our thoughts and emotions. How we feed them will determine our balance with in.

What I know about your two selves.

Just like the tale says, getting rid of one will not help. Accepting the good and bad will do much more than help or even bring peace. It will clarity, self respect, confidence and more. Even more courage than you already had. Probably because now that you’ve accepted all of yourself, your more focused on the outside, rather than in.

Bright side

I need to be positive and look at the bright side of things. When i confornt with sth difficulties its better to calm down and focus on the thing which can be helpful

May 5th, 2 wolves

I felt the voice was so soothing, the story just opened my eyes to what i can do with my own life and personality, so great, keep these up please!

How beautiful

You must take care of both sides of yourself. Don’t completely push away you’re anger or else you’d never learn to calm that anger.

5.6.18

i noticed that this made me feel a lot more calm. it helped. it made me sleepy as well, which is what i wanted.

5/7/18

I learned that we all have two wolves. We can chose anger, aggressiveness, and fear or we can chose love, kindness, and welcoming. But we need both wolves to work together in a harmonious way to bring us peace and comfort.

I learn that The choice is only yours. Feed the wolf you want to win.

To fulfill the objective, be compassionate , understanding , ...

Positivity and negativity

You can’t give into negativity and stay calm and happy. If you Fred into negativity you will no longer be happy and the bad side of you will show, if you give into the good you will be more happy and at peace.

Fear

I realized that I need to stop “feeding” into my negative energy. Instead of dwelling on it I should try to be more optimistic and accepting of what is upsetting me.

I noticed

I feed one wolf more than the other and let it take over me.

The choice is yours

I learned that it really is our choice as to which wolf we feed. If something bad happens and it causes us to feed the evil wolf, then the evil wolf will win. If we let the negative energy and events pass, we feed the good wolf, and he will win.

Amazing

I learned that many people go through stuff like me. I hope this helps other people like it helped me.

My wolves.

Lately, life has been rough. My mind is blurry with thoughts, and I feel as if I can’t get anything right. I’ve been feeding the wrong wolf, they’ve been in constant battle inside me and I’ve been helping the wrong one. This wolf feels as if he can control everything, but I have realized I need to feed the other wolf. The one who knows who I am and wants the absolute best. This wolf is kind and compassionate, this wolf is the me I know I am. The other is the wolf I know I can be. Neither can control each other, the owner does the controlling. I am the owner.

The tale of two wolves

I learned that we must balance our spirit, the good and the bad.

Balance

I learned that we all have two wolves within us a good and a bad one both are part of us but it’s a chose to which one to feed more

first meditation

i love this story. i learned that i cannot kill the other, bad wolf but that i can mindfully feed the right wolf. i think i could make great use of this app, especially with the journaling feature. i had trouble dealing with my emotions today and i ran out of weed but can not justify spending the money on more just yet. i should probably take a t-break and smoke when i get back from Florida, but we both know that’s not going to happen. i hope to not spend a lot of money this weekend and to just chill with molly at home.

Loved it!

I learned something very valuable. You cannot kill off the bad things I life, you can only “feed” the good and hope that it becomes the one that appears more.

Ummm... (¯―¯٥)

I've been having so pretty spooky nightmares ever since I started this i worry every night hoping and praying nothing happens and I can get a good night sleep. (´-﹏-`；)

12:35 a.m.

I should respect my self and not be mean. I will hang out with Ellysa and Ava over the summer and i will NOT doubt myself.

The Wolves

This story is really inspiring and helped bring some things in my life into perspective.

Power

I learned that you have to watch both Side of your personality and feeding one will cause it to become stronger. Feed the good side, but I don’t let it become strong than the darker side, for the battle will become bigger than it already is.

Two Wolves

We cannot destroy our dark side. It is not our enemy. We can acknowledge our dark side and choose to empower (“feed”) our light side more. This does not require using up all our energy trying to destroy our dark side.

Strive

I will strive to always empower and choose to feed my light side and do what I can to diminish the dark side. It is important to know that the dark side can always be there but through patience and perseverance, we can strive to always choose the light

I felt like I could relate

I felt like I could relate and make peace with the angry wolf inside me. One goal for me is now to the nurture the peaceful one as much as possible without trying to suppress the other one. Thank you for the wisdom.

Two Wolves

Do not suppress one wolf inside of you, because they also may have a purpose

I felt like going from one angry wolf frustrated stressed needed to be killed by kind good generous

I learned both can coexist just be mindful which peaks thru n make good choice and aware of feelings why n its ok just keep going n focused on right thing

Two Wolves

Feed both your wolves 🐺 🐺 - the kind one and the wild, fearless one. Embrace the fact that you are human and have many sides to yourself. Do not suppress them, instead, find a nice balance between them.

I felt painfully aware that I am feeding the wrong wolf on a daily basis.

I learned that I need to make a conscious effort to feed the right wolf.

Two wolves

I noticed that I felt so touched while listening to this story. It felt as if the universe was telling me that it’s ok to feel down sometimes, and that we should be mindful even when gloomy times cloud our days. Only then, are we able to feed our kind wolf :)

I felt relaxed and calm, enjoyed the story and rhythm & tone of narration.

I learned that it’s a balance btwn good and bad, right and wrong and aggression and kindness, and it’s ok to be accepting of both. Mostly, it’s about awareness of the two and being mindful in one’s actions to try to choose/feed kindness overall.

Change

I’ve been going through puberty and I have been on my period and can’t relax

I couldn’t sleep...

The voice was very calming and really relaxing. It helped me clear my brain out. It also made me think positive and not negative and so then I had a good sleep

Inner strength

I felt calmed and strengthened, we each fight a battle on the inside with our emotions, and often we let them win. We just need to breathe and allow ourselves to enjoy life.

Two wolves

I remember this story and didn’t think it could help lift my mood... I listened anyway. It helped because it reminded me that I AM in control of my thoughts and my moods; I CAN take a step out and choose my focus. I am NOT just a product of my past but am able to direct my future steps.

Feelings

I felt that I could really learn to just calm and learn to feed the companionate wolf

Better

I feel like bricks have been lifted off my chest and I can breathe easily again. This just basically calmed me down and made me feel at peace.

Wolves Within

I felt inside me the two wolves and reflected on those wolves coming out in real life. You do not want to overly feed either wolf because that would make you fearful to bring out the other. It is impossible to hide both forever therefore a balance must be in place. While you do not feed anger and aggression, you also should not be overly happy and joyful all the time. Sadness and anger is part of life just don’t overindulge in it. Next time you feel angry, simply create a neutral feeling inside yourself and find the balance between your two wolves. Next time you feel happy, sable the feeling but do not become overly happy and indulge in THAT to much either. Simply be excited for the moment inside and do not over excite on the outside.

Baby steps

I learned that it is possible for me to eat a lite dinner early in the evening and to successfully resist the urge to snack later on...I feel healthier this morning...

Angry or happy ( the two wolves )

I learned that if you focus on the angry wolf you will be more angry but if you focus on the happy wolf you will be happy.

Two Wolves

I learned that it’s okay to be angry but it shouldn’t take over your whole life because there are two wolves and one can’t overpower the other.

The Angry Wolf

I’ve heard this story many times, but I’ve never heard the part about being understanding with the angry wolf. That’s what sold it for me: trying to kill the angry wolf will only make it stronger. You have to be compassionate with that part of yourself.

Wolves

I loved the way this was told I have heard many versions and this one might be my favorite

Two Wolves

I learned that I can learn to identify my emotions and choose which ones to feed.

The One You Feed Podcast

When I saw the title of this story I knew it was referencing to the old parable of the two wolves, which I've already heard of from the One You Feed podcast, which is about mindfulness, meditation and improving yourself and not giving in to your desires or your bad wolf. Hearing this story made me relate more and reference it to my myself than compared to hearing Eric recite it on his podcast every episode.

2 wolves tale

I learned that yes, everyone has evil and anger within them but also happiness and tranquil. This helps us to see the light at the end of the tunnel and keeps us journeying on. However we must control our anger and learn to not lash out at those around us. We must pause, meditate, think and turn that raging anger into something positive.

“Awaken the white wolf within”

I just coincidentally read a book as entitled above and I now heard this story. May all of us feed the white wolf within.

Feeding...

This story is a great example of my favorite saying “Where Focus goes, Energy flows” As it pertains to our emotional wolves. I have somehow always chosen to feed the happy, honest, compassionate wolf over my life and actually felt guilty whenever my angry wolf would appear. But this story is saying I should not try to eliminate the negative wolf in me entirely. Hmmm... Let me think about that... there is positive & negative in everything and everybody, so I guess that applies to me to. And apparently I can not rid myself of him entirely? So I guess I should ideally keep him fed just enough to keep him alive but weak... right?!? I just did not like the description of him at all deceitful, angry, liar etc. I guess he may serve a purpose in me In the case I need to kill something entirely evil. But even that is very hard for me to imagine that I would need him around for that because he might try to deceive me to keep the evil alive... but maybe we can never get rid of evil entirely!? ❤️☮️🍀

Which one?

This was a great reminder of how we all have an internal war going on inside of us. We must choose wisely as to which wolf to feed in order to get the desired outcome we are searching for. One way I like to tittle the two wolves are “Fear” & “Confidence”. Feed the wolf “Fear” and nothing but fearful things and thoughts come to us. Feed the wolf “Confidence” and there’s nothing to hold you back. This was right on time.

Feed the positive side of you!

We all have two separate sides of ourselves: the positive, confident and kind self, and the negative and doubtful self. We need to continuously build up our positive self. We are whichever self we feed the most. So the key is to think positive thoughts, and to notice and observe the negative thoughts, without being influenced by them

Wolves

I learnt that we have 2 wolves in all of us. One positive and one negative. Instead of trying to feed one more than the other, we should feed both the same amount, keeping a healthy balance

It definitely spoke to me

I learned that my peaceful wolf is still a 12 year old and the fearful wolf continues to age and rule

Two Wolves

A different perspective, and a very interesting one at that. There are no negative emotions.

Reunion

Some people don’t change. They are sad and miserable in their lives and put up a phonie front and lie to them self’s. I chose to feed compassion and keep my mouth shut. .

2 wolves

Today I am watching the destruction of friends. It hurts to watch it all play out! I’m remembering that same journey I took years ago. I have been feeding the good wolf up until a few weeks ago. I compromised my own values because I was so lonely! When am I going to find someone to share my life and dreams with?

There is two types of emotions

We can choice to except or rebel against these emotions however you can coice wether to feed the negative one

balacne

That we can't just keep on listening to one side of the cause, but we have to listen to both sides and have control over how you choose to act and think

About the wolves.

Actually there's just one wolf, fed by your thoughts. The wolf is a metaphor for a soul. Feeding badly will make it against you, as the inverse will make it help you. Comprehend your wolf is an act of self-love.

Wolves inside

We all have two wolves inside. Is up to us to decide which one to feed. The decision to feed one over the other is powerful, thus the outcome is clear.

This is a great story.

I love the tie-in to Native American history! The idea of having two different sides to your personality makes so much sense to me.

Two Wolves

I noticed that I had difficulty focusing on the story of the two wolves. My mind is very strongly preoccupied with thoughts of family. I cant shake the sensation of stepping out of the car into crisp December morning air at my grandparents house.

Day 22

I’d heard this story before but it ended with “the one you feed most.” This iteration is better because of the explanation afterwards that both will continue to be there and that learning to live with both is necessary.

Cool

I noticed that I found this story hard to follow along to but after getting the general gist of it I have begun to see life in a different way. Concentrate on feeding happy thought not removing the bad x

Two wolves

Great exercise and great analogy to use when assessing a situation that need our utmost awareness.

Two Wolves

This is a story I’ve heard many times, to me it says that life is about accepting who you are. Not trying to deny that you have certain attributes, but work on the ones you want to become more prevalent

Two Wolves

I have heard of this story before. It was lovely getting to hear all of it, and it helped remind me that I have the ability to be aware of what I’m feeling and thinking.

so true

this story made me feel comfortable to my emotions. acknowledge that its okay to feel certain ways

Two Wolves

I understood what was being said and I love how I can relate to this story to well.

After the two wolves

The story help get my mind off thoughts that were pointless and made me think about something that never crossed my mind.

two wolves

I leaned that we have good and bad in us, the two wolves represent the good and bad, and we choose which wolf to feed.

Two wolves

We always have choices of what focus on... Focus on the good.

Balancing the two...

Our minds are in a constant battle within themselves and it’s up to us to balance our two inner wolves so that one does not overpower the other. The key to mental stability is balance.

My thoughts

I realized you don’t have to be like everyone else.... be you.

Wolves

I learned that I have been in a constant battle with myself, instead of just accepting myself just the way I am. This has caused me not to be able to appreciate all the beautiful things in life. This tale is just perfect 💕.

balance

both wolves are necessary but one may need more feeding than the other. never count out the necessity of inverse relationships for life is all about balance. yet focus on feeding the edifying, uplifting wolf within rather than the vengeful. "one makes you strong, one makes you weak, I know which wolf I'll feed"

Two Wolves

Be mindful. You will always have fear and doubt but don't try to kill it. Don't dwell on it. Don't feed it. Be aware that there is good and happiness in you and dwell there.

2 Wölfe

uns muss bewusst sein, dass wir beide wölfe in uns haben, doch steht uns auch offen, welchen wir füttern.

wolves

each one if us has good nd Bad inside of hem but how to keep it in Balance thats the real matter

Two Wolves

We are responsible for who we are and by feeding the negativity that’s inevitably trapped inside us we will become that negativity.

Day: I lost count

You have to feed the part of you that you want to become. If you feed anger, hostility, or any of those bad feelings, then that is who you will become. Instead you must feed the feelings of kindness, of friendliness. So that is who you may become. I must stop giving into my anger, overthinking, and every emotion that is not a good one.

Peace

I learned that I need to balance my peace of mind and not be so angry

difference

It is not weard to feel like you are more than one person. Sometimes i just do not know what to do with myself.

acceptance

there is a feeling of peace as I learn to accept my feelings of sadness and grief

constant fight

my two wolves were constantly fighting, i was so scared of the bad wolf and tried to fight him so hard that he grew stronger and started taking over the other wolf. I learned the two of them are supose to exist, so no need to be scared of them or try to fight them away

Two wolves

I’ve battled my two wolves for my whole life. Occasionally over feeding one and making it powerful than the other. But this story provides good insight into the balance of feeding energies. Too much of one energy will overpower another. We have to avoid the incessant power struggle but learning to distribute food (emotion) equally amongst our wolves.

Allow space

I can’t be perfect but I choose to allow room for some mistakes (which is inevitable). I can make sure to provide strong scaffolding for myself by ensuring a healthier and happier self through meditation and prayer.

noticed

this story is actually a Cherokee legend/myth but is loosely based on the two wolves story of the tribe. certain parts of the story and words were changed.

I’m Still Dead Inside

I learned that my soul is still dead. I’m not trying to be funny. I don’t know what is wrong with me. This app is the only thing keeping me from going crazy and snapping. I’ve snapped so many times my friends think I’m insane. (Which I am) I just needed somewhere, something, or someone to talk to. That’s all, thank you Aura!

Reflection

I can hold onto anger or I can choose to recognise this. And move on.

Two wolves

I learned these two parts of yourself are equal to echother and that you shouldn’t care for 1 more than another

The Story and the Storyteller

I learned that a classic story that predates partisans presence work puts you right to sleep when narrated without passion and emphasis

Two Wolves

Do not deny any part of who you are! Accept each part and allow yourself to be and grow and develop

The two wolves

I learned that there are two sides to ever person everything every creature and animal there are 2 sides to every story

Choices

This story illustrates how humanity has, time and time again, chosen the dangerous and deadly wolf. We have earned our suffering.

Two Wolves

There is more than just one thing to describe your actions. You could do something good or do something bad. Just remember that there is always two different wolves inside of you.

Feeding My Wolves

I learned that trying to completely destroy all anger will only make more struggles. If I am to better myself, I must “feed” my more compassionate self.

Picture the wolves!

I understand the notion of the 2 wolves like raava and vaatoo. I will try to feed Raava the wolf. I wanna practice visualizing them in a real situation to increase mindful choices of action.

This story was great!

Never try to kill all anger it will only cause more trouble.

Beautiful massage

If you have anger don’t try to fight it or have a war with it let I go, surrender.

Tane My Soul Mate

I love you More and more each Day..those words you sing...they Takr My Breathe Away

Inner-self

I learned that I am in control of how I feel about certain situations, so my reaction depends on with emotion I allow myself to feel. If I choose to react with anger that is not anyone’s fault but mine but if I chose to react with understanding, it might just change the outcome of the situation.

Phase 1: Growth

-Things become clearer when you stop and look at the bigger picture-.

Two wolves

I got emotional when I realized I’ve been feeding the fearful wolf the month of September 2020 and most of 2020. I will acknowledge my fearful wolf and start feeding my peaceful wolf and kind wolf that thinks positively

Wake up call

I learned something that give me warning signs and I went thru with my folders and all of that and I was not scared and I just had to stay calm and be strong and fight for my life to stay stable and not using for me he addictions again. I am so scared to death or whatever and I have to pray and read bible

First time

I need to take my mind off the day and I don’t know why this reflection is too short

Balance is important ..Yin Yang🐕🐇

I can balance my life. Be present. Grow and learn. Sometimes I may feel like howling, and that’s ok in moderation.

Tale of two wolves

I learned that it's ok to have two sides to yourself even when one sides not as good as the other and to embrace both.

Two inner wolves

I learned that cultures all over the world understand the duality in human beings — warlike and peaceful, strong and fragile, angry and forgiving — all in one person. Feeding the peaceful wolf is like finding and polishing the inner gem in ourselves and letting the anger, while acknowledging it, slip to the side.

Wow

I learned that these two wolves inside of us are wolves that we cannot tame or favor, but we do have control, although we may not think it at first, we do, and whichever wolf we choose to feed will be our choice, and these two wolves will never be at peace unless you are with yourself, thank you for this valuable lesson.

Two Wolves in Me

This story hit home today. I have been trying so hard to feed the good wolf, and I failed again today. It’s something that I did to myself, so, at least, I am not hurting others. If you knew, you would understand. It’s not drugs, sex, alcohol, or anything like that. I am so thankful that you shared this story; it was exactly what I needed to hear and contemplate. Thank you.

The Two Wolves

I first heard this story from my Mother In Law who is Native American. Her version ended with the punchline but I still was fascinated by the story. Now that I have heard the the rest of the story, I enjoy it even more!
