-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's be determined to 
have a truly meaningful time 
during this holiday period, 
free from any accident or incident.*
Let's be sure to drive safely (when and if we drive)!
At the same time, whenever we go out,
let's double check all fire sources 
and be sure to lock up,
physically pointing to each lock point!

*In Japan, the week known as "Golden Week" with four national holidays between April 29 and May 5 has just started and many people like to go somewhere during this period.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Even if you think you're hopeless and incapable, I know you're not. I have not the slightest doubt that each of you has a mission. No matter what others may say, I will always respect you and believe in you. No matter what your present situation is, I am absolutely certain that a wonderful future awaits you. 

"If you should fall, just get right back up. If you can pick yourself up, you can move forwards…. Now is the time for challenge and construction. Start from the present moment. Begin something, here and now."
