The Cube is an entertaining and inspirational visualization
that has been handed down for generations. It is designed to gain personal insights free from external judgement. You can do this by yourself or can share it with a friend!
- Imagine you see a bare stretch of sandy beach. Just sand and sky.
- Imagine a single cube in the picture. What is it made of? Where is it? In the distance? How does it look? Is it solid?
- Next, imagine a ladder. Is it big? Small? Near the cube? On top? Solid? Let your imagination be the boss.
- Imagine some kind of transportation? Is it a car? Horse? Boat? What color? Where is it? What relation does it have to the cube and the ladder?
- And now, imagine some growing plants. Are they flowers? Trees? Where are they? Are there a few or many?
- Finally, imagine a storm! What kind? What does it do to the rest of the scene? Is it in the distance, or right up close?
Hold that image before you look at the next page! You will be surprised!

When they met, everyone said Don and Tara were destined to be together. They took time to sit down and enjoy one another every day. As they approached retirement, they made plans to grow old together at the beach where they bought a condo next door to friends who planned to be part of the journey. Theirs was the marriage to be envied and served as a role model for how to do relationships.

I met my husband at my house. He came as the guest of a woman I met at a mountain retreat. She and I had connected naturally through our love of running, the outdoors and soul-level conversation during a mean game of ping pong. When she arrived at my pre-Thanksgiving gathering with a fellow, I was mildly surprised. Were they a couple or just friends?

Cathy and Ernesto were professors at a near-by University—intelligent, mid-life, world-traveled and childless lovers.

Although the sight of them was startlingly opposite, their hearts beat as one.
