| Bio: | One evening an old man told his grandson about a 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 man simply replied, "The one you feed."

PEACE IS PATRIOTIC.
***
In libris libertas.
***
The minimum you need to know: My bark is worse than my bite.
The rest of it: 40-something human being in search of peace of mind, good books, kind friends, a sense of belonging. I am blessed in many ways. I have begun to learn how to be happy as I am: imperfect, stumbling, frequently cranky, but trying to do better.
