Seymour, FEED ME!!!

There is a wonderful parable, that came to my attention, while waiting for my mammogram today.
"One evening a Cherokee elder told his grandson about the battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between wolves, that live inside us all. One is Unhappiness. It is fear, worry, anger, jealousy, sorrow, self pity, resentment, and inferiority. The other is Happiness. It is joy, love, hope, serenity, kindness, generosity, truth, and compassion."
"The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, which wolf wins?"
"The old Cherokee simply replied, The One you feed."
OMG, here Iam sitting with all these women, fearing the worst.
I will not feed this fear. I will celebrate these women who take the x-rays of all these boobies, and the doctors who give good news and bad. That they have strength and compassion, and warm hands!!!!
This parable, was in a magazine article, under the title, Happy for No Reason!!! It was about making yourself live from happiness, rather than for happiness!!! This made me happy!!!, the weather made me happy, I will not feed this beast of worry, sorrow, fear!!!
My focus today is practicing happiness instead of pursuing happiness!!!!
It also reminded me of the plant, in the play/movie, Little Shop of Horrors!!!!! FEED Me, Seymour!! That too, made me happy!!! See, its working!!!
