The Story Of Two Wolves
An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. "A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy.
"It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego." He continued, "The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too."
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."
Habit is a cable; we weave a thread of it each day, and at last we cannot break it. Horace Mann
The good wolf represents good habits and the evil wolf bad ones.

"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God" (John 1:1);
"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God" (John 1:1)
Actually the first word is Aardvark, go look it up in the dictionary. But John 1:1 is literally correct since God is an aardvark.

George Ain't Worth What He Use To Be!
Wow! Worth more than it's weight in GOLD!
If George Washington were alive today, he would be angry to see his likeness being used on counterfeit currency. There are trillions of dollars of US currency of all denominations in circulation today, bearing the portraits of various dead presidents. They are all counterfeit.
The real money of the United States, as established by the Constitution was gold and silver coins. By this time we had also printed paper currency that was “demand” money. In other words, these were certificates that certified that, for instance in the case of the $20 bill, “This certifies that there have been deposited in the Treasury of the United States of America $20 in Gold Coin Payable to the Bearer of Demand.” So the paper “demand” money was as “good as gold.”
Today's money isn't backed by anything and everytime the government prints more money (The just recently printed 1.2 trillion dollars) your money becomes worth less.
