If you listen to your fears, you will die never
knowing what a great person you might have been.

Ego
Letting go of the ego is a
difficult thing to do. Grasping that it will hold you back is easy to see.
Today let us try to recognize the ego, acknowledge the ego and overcome the ego
and it's limiting beliefs.
The Wolves inside you
The Wolves Inside You
An
elder Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life. He said to
them, "A fight is going on inside me… it is a terrible fight and it is
between two wolves. One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret,
greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride,
superiority and apathy.”
The
elder continued, “The other wolf stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing,
serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity,
truth, compassion and faith."
"This same fight is going on inside you, and inside every
other person, too,” he added.
The
Grandchildren thought about it for a minute and then one boy asked his
grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"
The
old Cherokee looked the boy in the eye, gently smiled and whispered...
"The one you feed."
