The Wolf and the Song
Here is a simple tale I was told, and now I'll tell it to ye.

One day, an elder Cherokee Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life, saying:

"A fight is raging on inside me. It is a terrible fight between two wolves. One is evil: he is fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, competition, superiority, and ego."

"The other wolf is good. He is joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith."


The same fight is going on inside you and every other person too.

The grandchildren thought about it for a moment and then one child asked:
"Which wolf will win?"

The Elder simply replied:


"The one you feed."


Obviously I liked the tale enough to think of writing a new journal. But on to my latest discovery of the hour!

I've found a new music site(Well maybe. And Maybe more then one!), since Imeem was EATEN by Myspace. scream / emo
It's not the same, but it's defiantly new music! Now, In the past, I don't know, 5 years I've lost faith in the Raido. Repalying the same songs (usually ones I don't like) over and over for half the year at a time or more. burning_eyes

But I suppose online radios are treatin` me better. =)

and here's a celtic lyric site I'm rather fond of (No I don't expect anyone to visit it ;.; )

Don't know what's playing now, but hopefully, it's as soul-warming, and lifting as the first few I heard on it!

I like the two wolves story. I actually tell that one to my clients ever so often. Whenever I have people complete the program, I try to find some sort of special story or quote to give them that fits. I do the two wolves story ever so often. I actually got a request to repeat it recently.

Also, I didn't know you like Celtic music. You might like some of the music I picked out for the rpg that should be coming up soon, assuming your characters survive the crypt, mwahaha.

I love Celtic music! I listen to it all the time... Along with folk music. Soundtrack, and goofy songs. x3 I just listen to very odd music.
=D Reaaaally? I wanna hear it!! heart

Yay for amazing anecdotes and sage sayings (and apparently alliteration!)! xd

Oh we'll survive the crypt! Even if it kills us... wait. xD
