[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] 30th Dec. 2017 Daily Gosho + 31st Dec. Daily Encouragement

 

* As we go into the holiday season here in Japan, Seikyo Shinbun will not be published for several days, except 1st January. BUT we will keep on going as there is still lots to catch up on and most important of all we know you're still fighting on! So here we go…

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Can we count the number of raindrops that fall in a major world system in the space of seven days? Or does anyone know the number of dust particles in the vast lands that make up the worlds of the ten directions? But the benefits one gains by making offerings even to one word of the Lotus Sutra—these, the Buddha says, are truly hard to measure."

- WND, Vol. 2, page 871)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Every day brings a new morning for you, too. Though you may have experienced a series of failures or disappointments up to yesterday, today is a fresh beginning and the start of a brand new day.

"No one knows what will happen today. In fact, you decide how you will live it. This new day is a day filled with hope. If you decide to do your best, you can succeed, even if you run into obstacles along the way.

"So let's start each morning energetically!"
