AUTHORS Evolving Soul BY TAMEKA JOHNSON The ability to evolve is one of the greatest gifts of humankind. It is the magic of developing from one level to the next, from one state of being to another, from realm to realm. But how can you evolve when your life is falling apart-when the best things about life are slipping away? The power of evolving is that it is an inner transformation and can occur in even the most tragic circumstances. Though we may start as something simple, we can grow to something that is complex in depth and beauty.
