Symptoms of Inner Peace:
-A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experience
-An unmistakable ability to enjoy the moment
-A loss of interest in judging other people
-A loss of interest in judging self
-A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others
-An inability to worry (this is a very serious symptom!)
-Frequent overwhelming episodes of appreciation
-Frequent acts of smiling
-An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than to make them happen
-An increased susceptibility to the love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.

Inner peace.
I sit at the end of the pier and watch the water. Its tranquility reminds me of the end of a storm. It calms me.
The stillness surrounds me. It reminds me of light pouring through a window.
It calms me.
The serenity is transparent like the water. It's like looking through a piece of stained glass.
It calms me.
The equanimity seeps inside me. It feels like hot wax dripping down a candle.
It calms me.
And I am still.
Inner peace.

Yes, inner peace...
Often times I try really hard to let go not judge my self to harshly and remeber that I too just human and can't fix everything...beautifully written as always...
I like the peaceful waters, while I float, I am reborn...always with loss and always with a new part...
I have most of these down but this post reminds me of how much work I still have to do! Thanks for the great post to help take me where I need to go!
I think I am infected with most of the symptoms.
A wonderful post.
God bless.
Dr Taylor says: I believe that the more time we spend choosing to run the deep inner peace circuitry of our right hemispheres, the more peace we will project into the world, and the more peaceful our planet will be.
Very elegantly put in words. Surfing sometimes gets me there although i haven't done that for awhile.
Thanks, that post made me feel good...and I like when that happens.
peace,
