The first creation to talk about -"Parable about the wolf and the priest." Let's start with the main character. From the first lines the parable introduces us to the wolf. He has torn a multitude of sheep, and has also cast people into tears and confusion. One day he began to torture remorse. He began to repent of his own life. The wolf decided to change and not to kill the sheep anymore. To make it all according to the rules, the wolf went to the priest, asked him to hold a thanksgiving prayer. The servant of the church began the service, the main character, in turn, stood in a holy place and wept. The procession was long. Many sheep happened to slaughter a wolf, so the priest prayed with the utmost earnestness, asking the parishioner to change. Suddenly a penitent looked out of the window and saw an amazing picture. Sheep drove home. Then he began to shuffle on his feet. The priest continued to pray, and there was no end in sight. At a certain point, the wolf could not stand it and asked the church minister to finish the sermon until the sheep were driven home, otherwise he would remain without dinner.

Существует и еще одна любопытная притча про wolf, and not about one, but even about two. She tells about how in ancient times one old Indian opened his grandson one of the life truths. He said that the struggle is in each of the people. She is very similar to the battle of two wolves. The first of these is evil - lies, ambitions, selfishness, regret, jealousy, envy. Another wolf is responsible for good: loyalty, kindness, truth, hope, love, peace. The little Indian was touched with the words of his grandfather. He thought for a few moments, and then asked which wolf wins at the end. The old Indian smiled faintly and said that the one that the person feeds comes out on top.
