This is probably the best I have ever heard life explained, it’s from Daniel Doiron in Montreal, Canada.
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.”
That is very profound. As you think, you are. A good reminder to keep our thought lives positive and focussed on the things we want in our lives and not the problems and issues we encounter along the way.

Thanks Marc, after a difficult two weeks where nothing has seemed to go right, I appreciate the reminder and reinforcement about what to focus on. Definately off to feed the right wolf now.
Onward and Upward!
