Additional background for reflection (Assignment Four)

(Note: materials labeled “for reflection” do not require written responses)

Many cultures use stories to help people enhance emotional intelligence (long-term, less self-centered thinking). We can’t confirm the original source of the following legend (you’ll see it here: “First People: American Indian Legends), but think it summarizes what we now recognize as a science-based understanding of competing components of human nature (selfish and cooperative):

“An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. ‘A fight is going on inside me,’ he said to the boy.

‘It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil — he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.’ He continued, ‘The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.

The same fight is going on inside you — and inside every other person, too.’

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, ‘Which wolf will win?’

The old Cherokee simply replied, ‘The one you feed.’
