-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Friendship is indeed a lifelong treasure.
It's our sincere efforts to go and visit someone
that develops faith and trust 
between us and them.
Let's share our honest concern and care 
for their happiness
with that friend and this friend.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"What stands before us is an undertaking that will be chronicled in the annals of human history. The challenge of creating the new reality of a global society where all may live in peace and dignity is not beyond our reach. And it is my firm belief that the solidarity of ordinary people will be the driving force for its realisation."
