My life was wonderful, and gratefully, I knew it…. and then came cancer.
When I got sick the first time, I was a very healthy individual. I exercised, I meditated, I ate organic foods, in fact, I was partly vegetarian. I was a good person, so it wasn’t like I had a lot of fear or anger inside of myself, and I truly felt like every part of my life was going great. I had a great business that I’d started. I had fallen in love with a beautiful, amazing woman. Everything felt like it was just perfect. My life was wonderful, and gratefully, I knew it. So when I found myself on a Friday afternoon in the year 2000, sitting in front of the surgeon who was telling me that I had the second most aggressive cancer that he knew of, and that he needed to operate within two hours, I was speechless.
True happiness grows when we’re in control of who we choose to be in any given moment.
True happiness grows when we’re in control of who we choose to be in any given moment. Then, as a result to those choices, happiness blooms based the actions that we take. So if we can find, through our actions and who we’re choosing to be, that our sense of inner peace and happiness is strongly present, then everything outside can’t take that away from us.
True Happiness Regardless of Circumstance
There is a foundation to making this thread of decisions work in our lives – it is knowing the difference between the things that we can control and the things that we can’t. Even in the moment I was diagnosed with cancer, I could 100% control who I was choosing to be. I could decide how to react to the doctor’s words, “I don’t know if you’re going to live.”
What is an intentional life?
What is an intentional life? What does it mean to live a conscious life? Does it mean that we choose whatever path we “want” – full speed ahead, regardless of the consequences? You hate your job? But you can’t quit - it provides benefits for your family. Don’t like where you live? But my children have friends here. You aren’t happy in your relationship? But we can’t fix it and it’s too much work to change it. It’s a fine line between living a conscious, connected life that each of us defines and loves, and sometimes making the difficult choices that put our needs first.
"I am a firm believer that when a person is ready, the teacher will appear, my teacher appeared when I picked up the Manual for Living! I have struggled with depression, addictions of all sorts and wounds from the past that still hurt me today . I have been searching for inner peace my whole life. I got great comfort and many questions answered from the Manual for Living. I have started picking it up when I am feeling lost and I have not been disappointed with the message that I receive. The book made such an impression on me I drove 1000 miles to meet Seth. What a wonderful soul he is! Seth lives his message and it is clear to see that when you are around him. I have given this book away to over 10 people and I will continue to give it away because I believe in the message it holds." - Kim G.
