Life...
has been given to us all. The same Life Force runs through each and every one of us. We are given our amount of it at birth. That is common to ALL mankind. That is where the commonality ends and the uniqueness begins. It is much like at birth we are given a Rubik's Cube. But, this Rubik's Cube is special. The color choices are endless. However, when it is handed to you it has no color at all. Imagine with me if you will.....

I live and grow in my universe. It is dark and warm. A rhythmic pulse shrouds me in comfort. Liquid is my atmosphere. It provides protection and cushion for my safety. I float in my universe growing healthy and strong. My nutrition and oxygen are automatic and plentiful. My vine is vibrant. Soon enough though, my universe becomes cramped and uncomfortable. The warmth of the dark and the rhythmic pulse still bring peace to me. But, the space is squeezing in on me. What is going on? Why are the walls of my universe bearing down on me? Pushing me and pushing me! Oh! Help Me!...

Awe Wowww! My body feels so alive. My universe is unreal and enormous. The warmth and the darkness are gone. The comforting rhythmic pulse has been replaced with millions of contrasting and invading sounds. But, this glorious new universe is so full of experiences beyond my comprehension. I knew nothing of this awesome place before. I feel my chest rising up and down. I am cold and exhilarated. I feel ALIVE.

These experiences and millions of others introduce themselves so abruptly. Each of these situations create a color on our Cube. They come so rapidly they stick to the Cube in infinite randomness. Some are really awesome and some are not very good at all.

Let's say that purple is warmth. After the birth experience I am bombarded by the coldness of this universe. Then, next thing I know something wraps me in a layer of warmth. Its not the complete warmth I felt in the womb. But, it is comforting. Hues of purple start to surface on my Cube.

If I am left in the cold no colors form. Because if I am left in the cold completely I would just pass on.

Sometimes it is that a baby is left in the cold for too long but is then wrapped. Other colors start to form. Each color forms according to each individual circumstance. These colors appear randomly on the Cube. As we grow in perception we learn to manipulate our Cube. We discover how to twist and turn our way through events and happening in our lives. We start to choose the colors we want to pursue. And we work our cube to gather our personal colors together.

Say that yellow is cleanliness. To a person who finds this important, they are going to continually work to arrange the yellows on the faces of the Cube. Because cleanliness is important to them they create and arrange situations of yellow. Other colors on the Cube may be in disarray, but we seek what brings comfort. Our colors change as we change. And we can create the experiences in our Lives to orchestrate the colors of our Cube.

OH! And by the way, Our Cube Has A Name. It is called the Soul! God Bless.
