-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin teaches,
"One's thoughts are expressed in one's voice."*
Let's express, in our voices,
how we sincerely care about our friends' happiness.
Let's have the type of conversation,
with courage and confidence,
that moves our friends' hearts and minds!
*"Opening the Eyes of Wooden and Painted Images", WND-I, page 86

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Illness gives rise to the resolve to attain the way."
(The Good Medicine for All Ills
- WND, Vol. I, page 937)
