-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
The driving force that will rock this era
is right under our feet, in our immediate surroundings.
Every discussion meeting that is filled with laughter and happy faces
is the starting point for people to feel awakened
and inspired with joy and courage.
Now, together, let's advance!
