-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Absolutely all of our efforts and hard work,
the hardships and struggles we encounter
for the sake of kosen-rufu
brings us good fortune and benefit.
Every action that we take for the happiness of others
becomes a great lifetime treasure.
Enthusiastically and with a youthful spirit,
let's all try to be active in the very hive of SGI activities!

"If you have good friends, friends who are trying to improve and develop themselves, you'll improve and grow, too. Andrew Carnegie (1835–1919), the American steel magnate, modestly attributed his success to having gathered around him people who were far more talented and capable than he. This was his philosophy of life. The only way to make good friends is to be a good friend yourself. Good people gather around other good people."
