Good and Evil

Good and Evil

This is a wonderful short story or parable that all Boomers can live by.  In fact, I wish I’d heard it when I was much younger, like the little boy in the story instead of the “old man” in the story.

Another advantage to this advice, is Your Thoughts Today Create Your Reality Tomorrow.  You get what you think about, so think good thoughts and send their vibes out to the world.  They’ll come back to you in many ways.

So here it is, pass it on, especially to children in your family or know.

I found this on FinerMinds.com, a site worth checking out.

One evening an old man told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside all people. He said, “My son, there is a battle 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 man simply replied, “The one you feed…”

Do you want to Be Someone special (you already are), do you want to be Special? Do you want to be Important, looked up to?

We all want to be special. The quickest, easiest and best way to be Special is:
1) Be yourself
2) Put love into your life and the world.
3) SERVE OTHERS.

From Pastor Rick Warren:
Significance in life doesn’t come from status, because you can always find somebody who’s got more than you. It doesn’t come from sex. It doesn’t come from salary. It comes from serving.” (Rick Warren)

So, share your talent, skills and love by Serving Others and live will be great.

Thanks for stopping by, John
