The Two Wolves

 A conversation between a grandfather and his grandson, after the September 11 terrorist attacks...

The grandfather says: "I have two wolves barking inside me. The first wolf is filled with anger, hatred, bitterness, and mostly revenge.The second wolf inside me is filled with love, kindness, compassion, and mostly forgiveness."

"Which wolf do you think will win?" enquired the grandson.

The grandfather responded, "Whichever one I feed."

A Story of Two Friends

There were two friends, Bill and Bob. They were walking in the desert, and got into a disagreement. Bill slapped Bob on the face, and without saying a word, Bob knelt down and wrote in the sand...

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE

They patched up their differences and carried on. They came to a waterhole, and they both jumped in for a swim, but Bob started to drown, and Bill came to his rescue and saved his life.

Bob went and carved into the rock...

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE

Bill asked why he had written in the sand before, but this time he'd carved it into the rock.

Bob replied, that when someone wrongs us, we should write it into sand where the winds of time can blow it away.

But when someone does good to us, we should etch it into stone, so that we always remember and be thankful.
