-- TO MY FRIENDS --
In order to break through
those thick walls of obstacles,
we need tenacity and an indomitable spirit
while continuing to take action
with perseverance.
Today, again, by chanting daimoku
with unyielding determination,
let's take one step
towards challenging our limitations!

"it's important to set a date, if you leave things up in the air, chances are they won't happen.
"You know how it is when former school friends see one another and say, 'we really have to get together. I'lll get in touch,' and then years go by without those promises ever being kept. But if the friends set a date then and there, they are much more likely to actually meet."
