-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's always be very careful to remember,
especially when we have a full schedule of activities,
that carelessness or overconfidence can easily be
our greatest enemy.
I am praying sincerely and earnestly that each and every
one of our fellow members stays in good health and that all
of our Seikyo Shimbun and SGI publications deliverers
stay absolutely safe on their rounds.

"From this single element of mind spring all the various lands and
environmental conditions."
(The Unanimous Declaration by the Buddhas of the Three Existences regarding
the Classification of the Teachings and Which Are to Be Abandoned and Which
Upheld - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.2, page 843) Selection

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"People always have many different roles to play. The crucial thing is to be
determined to do one's best in everything and be fully engaged in what we
are doing at any given moment. To worry about the job when it is time to
focus on the children and then worry about the children when it is time to
focus on the job is a half-hearted way to go about either task. As Nichiren
Daishonin writes: 'Even an individual at cross purposes with himself is
certain to end in failure' (WND-1, 618). The secret to successfully
fulfilling a variety of roles is to concentrate fully on the task at hand
and give it our best effort with enthusiasm, maintaining a positive,
forward-looking attitude and not worrying."
