-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When we go out on snowy or icy roads,
let's make sure to take each step very carefully indeed.
Today again,
let's bring a fresh spring breeze of smiles to our friends.

"'The treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all,' Nichiren Daishonin says. 'Strive to accumulate the treasures of the heart!' (WND-1, 851). This is the message he imparted to his embattled disciple Shijo Kingo. It contains the most vital key for winning in life.
"Our heart is our unsurpassed treasure in life. It is endowed with incredible potential and supreme nobility. Its depth and breadth can be expanded infinitely, and its strength can be developed without bound. The French author Victor Hugo (1802-85) wrote: 'There is a spectacle greater than the sea, and that is the sky, there is a spectacle greater than the sky, and that is the human soul.'
"How can we expand the inner realm of our life, develop inner strength, and accumulate the treasures of the heart so that we can lead better lives? The answer is found in practising the Mystic Law."
