A nice lil story I heard from someone...

*********************************

"This is a story about an old man who told his grandson one evening after prayers about a battle that was going on inside himself.

He said, "My child, the battle is between two wolves, one of whom is so evil, full of anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, hypocrisy, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.

The other is so good, full of rememberance of Allah Ta'ala, faith, joy, peace, love and compassion, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, and truthfulness."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather,"Which wolf will win?"

The grandfather simply replied, "The one I feed".
