"Symptoms of Inner Peace"
(© 1984 Saskia Davis)


Some signs and symptoms of inner peace:
* A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experiences.

* An unmistakable ability to enjoy each 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.

* A loss of interest in conflict.

* A loss of the ability to worry. (This is a very serious symptom.)

* Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation.

* Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature.

* Frequent attacks of smiling.

* An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than make them happen.

* An increased susceptibility to the love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.

Ahh, how true it is...these frequent "attacks" of enlightenment.

Something that's been bothering me of late is when I'm having these symptoms of inner peace, I sometimes get afraid of really giving into them. (See? it's bothering me, so I haven't really let go....) Like at work today, someone tiptoed up beside me and began to whisper some gossip in my ear. Part of me wanted to tell her to stop, part of me wanted to listen and giggle about what she was saying, and the other part of me just wanted to ignore her completely. Baby steps, I suppose.

It is interesting to see, as I continue on my path of evolvement, how I am changing and seeing the same old things (and people) in a totally different light. Its interesting in some ways, and sad in other ways. And it can be exhausting too!

OK finished with my musings...thanks for listening...
