-- TO MY FRIENDS --
A person's sense of responsibility
to help friends with their well-being
is shown by their careful attentiveness
to their feelings and concerns.
Are they are in good health or not?
How's their family life going?
How's life at work?
Let's make every effort to become considerate leaders
who make a point of being concerned about others!

"Nelson Mandela wrote that a new world will not be realised by passive bystanders, but rather that 'honour belongs to those who never forsake the truth even when things seem dark and grim, who try over and over again, who are never discouraged by insults, humiliation and even defeat.'"
