Cherokee Indian story for Show Me

Well-known member
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 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 Cherokee replied, "The one you feed."

The Haircut


One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.


Afterward, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you,' 'I am doing this as a community service this week.'


The florist was pleased and left the barber shop.


When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.


Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tried to pay, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you , I'm doing this as a community service this week.'


The cop was happy and left the barber shop.


The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.


Then his Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay, the barber again told him, 'I cannot accept money from you.' 'I'm doing this as a community service this week.'


The Congressman was very happy and left the shop.


The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Congressmen lined up, all waiting for a free haircut.


...That, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.


BOTH POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME
REASON !!!!
