One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about the 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.”

Just needed to remind myself

Very cool.... a thread worth reading.....

twice even.....

:)

I am going to tell this one to the guys at the fire dept tomorrow. Our shift has been kind of in a funk lately.

thanks

Things have been a bit trying here. Lately it seems every that every corner I turn I run into a brick wall, stub my toe, bump my head (figuratively)

Little chit that really dosen't mean much in the big picture.

The big picture is a 3yr old running to greet daddy after work, a 1 yr old putting together a mumbling sentence and walking on her own. A home cooked meal when it's bitchin cold out. Calling dad to shoot the chit about how th Packers suck this year on his B-day.

Chit that can wait? A broken belt on the snowblower when we have 8" or more of snow. A leaky power steering fluid line on the car that I noticed today. A laptop that won't boot for some reason. Issues with the bank and checking account.

Litttle chit that really grates on you but doesn't matter in the big picture.

One more quote from an anonymous someone... "Nobody on their death bed has ever said 'I wish I spent more time at work'"

Good stuff, Bucky.

Yes, good stuff.

Great Biblical resonance there, too.

The GD laptop still won't boot! Says I need to reinstall the system OS. Yeah, thanks... you know what? They don't give out OS disks anymore.

The POS came with a "recovery" partition on the hard drive so if all else fails, you can go back to the factory setting via the "recovery" partition. I've tried that at least 4x now. Grrrrreeeaaaat! But what if the hard drive is going belly up? Looks like I'll be beating my head against a wall on this one.

I think I'll feed my "recovery" disk to the bad wolf. I'll let him choke on it because I'm this () close to chucking the damn thing into the woods.

(recovery disk my ass...)

Anyone know where I can get a cheap laptop? Wait, I think that was asked already.

Wow, thanks for posting that.

I would have guessed the one dressed like a sheep...or at least dressed like

99999999999999999!

did someone say food?

I try to feed the good wolf, but the bad wolf snarls and generally gets him to back off.

So the bad wolf is the one that gets nourished most of the time.

If I bought a used red motorcycle, maybe I could outrace the bad wolf.

Is this a good plan?

^No. The color red is supposed to get you lots of tickets.

Peace, Joy and love throughout the land. Buy an Apple.

LOL at Baron.

I'm here on a Mac tower as we speak (type). Frickin' thing is probably 10 yrs old and I'm running OSX 10.3 and is still more trustworthy than the windows laptop I bought last year. The laptop ran fiine up until a couple months ago and something went haywire, Gonna have to start from scratch on that.

Maybe Linix? Since I, starting from scratch...

Fargin windows... grrr....

Go Pack!
