— TO MY FRIENDS --
Ladies, please make it your top priority to stay accident
and incident free.
At night, make sure to avoid poorly lit routes
and try to return home as quickly as you possibly can!
Carelessness can be our worst enemy.
Let's make a point to regularly remind each other
as we advance in our activities.

"If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look
at the results as they are manifested in the present. And if you want
to understand what results will be manifested in the future, look at
the causes that exist in the present."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page 279)

"My mentor, second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda, would often say about our discussion meetings: 'Even if only two or three people gathered, we would talk about the Gohonzon and the Gakkai, and everyone would go home inspired and filled with joy. That's how our present organisation started and developed.'
"Kosen-rufu begins from small gatherings attended by just a few individuals."
