Well then think about it given in the context for which it was made. Forget about the photo.
It's a story by people who made story telling an art. Imagine an old man sitting around a fire at night with his family. He sees his grand children are growing up. They have emotions just like anyone. He tells them basically we all have these feelings which sometimes oppose each other.
He tells them without lecturing.Whatever emotion you feed will become stronger. Arn't there times when we tamp down our own negative emotions because there is a better emotion like hope?
When we feed our fears we become fearful. When we feed our hope we become hopeful.
