-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The bonds between people 
are the very strength and force
that propel recovery and restoration 
particularly in times of disaster.
Striving to never leave 
anyone feeling isolated,
let's keep in close communication 
and coordinate closely!
The Daishonin encourages us,
"The voice carries out the work of the Buddha."*

*  OTT, page 4

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Because of the abundance of information available to us today, it can be easy to overthink things without ever taking action.

"But the fact is, you never know what you can do until you try."

On the Wings of Your Dreams, from the May 1st, 2017, issue of the Future Journal. Translation released June 2018.
