I saved my favorite pig story for this grand occasion: One day a man drove by a farm and saw a three-legged pig. The man went up to the farmer and said, "Excuse me sir, but why does that pig only have 3 legs?" "Well," said the farmer, "that there pig is very special. One time my wife was cooking something she stepped out of the kitchen and it caught on fire. No one in the house knew about it but the pig and he saved me, my wife, and my 2 kids." "That's amazing sir but why does that pig only have three legs?" said the man. "Then there was that time the pig saw a big storm coming and we didn't. The pig ran into the house and dragged us out to the storm cellar. If it weren't for that pig we would all be dead." "But still, that doesn't explain why the pig only has 3 legs." "And I remember the time my youngest son was stuck up in a tree but I was too far away to hear him scream. The pig came running towards me and led me to where he was." "Well, that is miracle but how come that pig only has 3 legs?" the man said quite annoyed at this point. "Well," said the farmer, "with a pig that special... you have to eat 'em real slow." Congratulations!

The faster you dismiss a crave, the less they will bother you. Tell yourself, "It's not an option, let's move on."

A crave can't kill you.

Your body wants to heal itself and will when you stop, just let it. Have patience and enjoy the journey.

I want to tell a story about Sally that happens in the future. Stories that happen in someone’s future are more fun to tell because they may or may not be connected to actual events. But first, she wrote an excellent essay about the Zen of Quitting Smoking and I meant to tell her my favorite Zen saying which is, “Every snowflake falls perfectly”. When a snowfall starts with great big flakes one should go out in them and look up to follow a flake on its journey. Some zig zag on their way down before landing on a single blade of grass – perfectly, while others spin crazily before melting on the sidewalk - perfectly. As you watch the flakes fall, your mind will clear in the cold air and you will be aware of the immense quiet of a winter snow. Then I thought, what good is this to Sally in New Orleans? This winter meditation isn’t going to work often down there. I’ll change it for her to, “Every raindrop falls perfectly”. As many know, Sally gets around NOLA on foot most of the time so it is almost a certainty that she will be caught in a rain shower. She will come in soaked with pure water dripping from her hair down her back. She will blow an exquisite drop of water from the tip of her nose. She will shake like a wet dog from her head to her tail. Pooling up in a personal puddle she will remember that “Every raindrop falls perfectly”. After reading that in her past about her future, her now present will look up and say ”I could do with a little bit less perfection”. Then she will laugh with us because that is what perfection feels like.

It's one of the most important things you'll ever do and it's not as hard as you think.
