... It's true.
There really is a war going on inside of me.
I cannot promise or proclaim that it is amongst wolves, but it is there.
Good
and
Evil
at internal war.
Legend has it that a terrible fight is fought within us.
It is fought between two wolves.
One evil,
representing fear, anger, envy, regret, sorrow, greed, self-pity, ego, and every other venomous condemnation.
One good,
representing love, peace, hope, faith, humility, truth, generosity, compassion, kindness, serenity, and every other soulfully prosperous attributes.
However, we choose which wolf will win.
We choose which wolf to feed.
I can almost literally feel the raw ambivalence of this fight in my chest.
Just the understanding of it is not enough.
I know that I am experiencing these good and evil feelings, but what if I am not strong enough to fight?
Is that not feeding my Good?
Isn't it unethical, inhumane not to feed?
I can feel it.
My soul is hungry.
Yearning.
There has to be something more. |
