Symptoms of inner peace

This week I was listening to an old CD by Dr. Wayne Dyer. He offered a list of “symptoms of inner peace” from Peace Pilgrim, a pacifist and peace activist who walked across the U.S. 28 times. It’s an interesting turn of phrase: symptoms of inner peace. When I heard it, I discovered that I have a lot of “inner peace.”  What about you? Here they are.

 

A tendency to think and act spontaneously

The ability to enjoy each moment

A loss of interest in judging others

A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others

A loss of interest in conflict

A loss of ability to worry

Frequent and overwhelming episodes of appreciation

Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature

Frequent attacks of smiling

Increased susceptibility to the love extended by others, and the uncontrollable urge to extend it to others
