Which Wolf Wins?

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 that dwell inside each of us.

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."

Amazing Grace (in Cherokee) by Walela

Amazing Grace Sung by Native Americans on the Trail of Tears

Seventy years after John Newton composed the
lyrics for this hymn, thousands of displaced
Cherokees sang the hymn as they were herded
along the tragic Trail of Tears (1838-1839).

In 1830 the U.S. Congress passed the Indian
Removal Act. The Cherokee Trail of Tears
resulted from the enforcement of the Treaty of
New Echota, an agreement signed under the
provisions of the Indian Removal Act.

Cherokee men, women, and children were
forced to travel 1000 miles west, often on foot,
to new reservations. During this journey, about
4, 000 people lost their lives due to hunger,
disease and inhumane conditions.

The tribe remembers this period as the Trail of
Tears. They were not allowed to stop and
attend to their dead so instead would quietly
sing “Amazing Grace” as a way to honor the
passing.
