Beautiful native american wisdom. I first heard this...:

From Zen Pencils:
This is often attributed as being an old Native American Cherokee legend (and I’ve obviously depicted it as such) but after doing a bit of digging online I found that its origins are disputed. This source gives pretty convincing evidence that it’s only a few decades old and evolved from a passage in a Billy Graham book. And Wiki Answers claim that the moral ending of the passage is inconsistent with traditional Cherokee fables. So I don’t know who to believe, and I didn’t credit the quote on the comic. If anyone can help clarify the source, please leave a comment. Regardless of the origin, it’s a great little proverb and one I wanted to adapt and share with you.

Beautiful native american wisdom. I first heard this tale in a native american course at uniI’m only 40, but I’ve lived a lot of life in these years, and I’m convinced this is true. The wolf you feed attracts similar wolves, too, so choose wisely.
