    What is the whole 2 wolves idea about anyway? I’ve seen memes parodying it but don’t know what it’s actually referring to.

      It’s from like a motivational thing

      “You have two wolves fighting inside of you. One is darkness and despair, one is light and hope”

      “Which one is going to win?”

      “Whichever one you feed”

        Thanks. I’m struggling to write a reply that expresses genuine gratitude to you for explaining that and the fact that I think it’s a dumb concept without it making it sound like my thanking you is sarcastic.

          Oh no worries haha, yeah it’s a silly story. Basically just a fake deep way of saying “be positive”
