A Native American Elder was trying to describe the struggle between good and evil here on earth to his young Grandson.
"Good is a bear, evil is a wolf and the two are always fighting to decide who is stronger" said the Elder.
"Which one will win, Grandfather?" Asked the child.
To which the Grandfather replied, "The one you feed."

That's really scary, believing that good and evil are equals. When I'm in a bad place, that's how I feel, but not how it's supposed to be.
Boy, do you look like a wholesome Irish girl right off the fields of green, Trailady. How, oh how did it work for you? Posting your pic? The add page feature for my profile all but finishes uploading, but fails to complete.
Also, how did you post that music video of the Barlow girls? Understand that I realize this is hard to explain in just the comments.
What an interesting understanding of good versus evil...thanks, TL.
it's interesting that evil is the wolf, good the bear... But I suppose the bear was much more important for survival as they provided warm fur and who ever heard of eating wolf steaks.
Trailady, awesome!
Ancient Native wisdom has a lot to offer, grandfather's saying of when we were more in tune with nature often lost, grandmother's sayings handed down from her grand mother lost thru the ages after millennia - and where do we go
Such a plethora of knowledge, such diversity for every tastes, but almost like the tower of babel the imagery and meaning are lost in a thousand tongues
I realize that the post is actually about good or evil only winning if we feed them, and not really saying that they are equal..
and, the pic thing is a problem for me with macintosh and wireless or blogger and me, or something that you can't help with. And the Barlow girls' type video is something only I can figure out using a music website. Just didn't want to seem too dumb.
Hello all and thanks for the comments.
Gabriel, Once you are inside the dashboard of your blog, you should see your profile page, on it, there should be a space that says 'Photo'. There you eiter plug in the url of a photo of you online, or paste the drive path to a photo stored in your computer. That should help.
As for the Barlow Girl video, well, any web video site that allows you to post them will include the HTML code that you copy and paste into your post in order to show the video. Good luck!! :o)
Thanks. I've tried some of this but have had problems, but I'll try again.
