Each soul comes to earth with gifts. Each soul takes upon itself a particular task. It may be the task of raising a family or communicating ideas through writing, or transforming the consciousness of a community, such as the business community. It may be the task of awakening the awareness of the power of love at the level of nations, or even contributing directly to the evolution of consciousness on a global level. Whatever the task that your soul has agreed to, whatever its contract with the universe, all of the experiences of your life serve to awaken within you the memory of that contract, and to prepare you to fulfill it.
