Water Flows Down

It’s strange isn’t it how every thing in this world always keeps coming down. Sir Isaac Newton explained this phenomenon using the laws of gravity. But I must admit that I am still amazed how everything in this world tries to reach the lowest possible point.

If you have ever watched water flow you will understand what I am talking about. A water fall, never thunders upwards, a stream always flows down wards (remember the nursery rhyme, “Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream”) even a tiny pool of water spilt on the table tries to find the easiest way downwards.

So what about it? You must be wondering what the connection is between quitting smoking and flowing water. There is a very deep connection, as you will see for yourself. There is an unwritten rule in this world that everything must try and find the easiest route downwards. When you take something to a higher state, it becomes unstable and tries to find the easiest route downwards.

Over here we are trying to precisely the same thing. We are trying to take you from a lower state (the state of being a smoker) to a higher state, (the state of being a non-smoker). So you must bear in mind that it is the easiest thing in the world for you to relapse and again pick up that packet of cigarettes. It is going to take a lot of effort and will power on your part to refrain from smoking. That’s why I keep saying that you will need all the support and encouragement while you are still working at it.

But then you might wonder if you have to keep up that will power and constantly have to keep battling against the urge to smoke for the rest of your life. The answer is no. Once you have given up the habit once and for all, once you have over come all these withdrawal symptoms, then you have arrived. You will automatically pick up a new life style and there will be no room for cigarettes in that new life.

You will start to realize how much better your life has become with out cigarettes. You will feel the power in your hands, you will be in absolute control of your life and at that stage there is absolutely no going back. Once you have tasted the sweetness of success, there is no going back. Then you are safe and there is no fear of relapsing after that.

The whole thing is like a threshold. When you are controlling yourself for the first time, you are at the very middle of the threshold. You can fall upwards or downwards and it is much easier to fall downwards. This is where you need the support, help and encouragement of others. But gradually as you over come the urge, you advance further and further upward and once you are beyond a certain point, then you have reached the point of no return and then there is no going back.
