-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The bonds of friendship that we share with those around us
are the most precious treasures of life.
Let's motivate each other to do our very best,
and challenge each other in the spirit of healthy competition to achieve our
common goals.
Let us, both you and I, together, become great champions of victory!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We can't start a fire from flint if we stop halfway. If we do, all of our
efforts up to that point would have been in vain. Similarly, we will be
defeated if our faith is half-hearted. So warns the Daishonin.
"'Have profound faith. A coward cannot have any of his prayers answered'
(WND-1, 1001)--this famous passage is from a letter the Daishonin wrote to
Shijo Kingo. Faith is the highest form of courage and the highest form of
good.
