—— DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"There is a wonderful story about lupines titled Miss Rumphius, by American writer Barbara Cooney. In it, a little girl's grandfather asks her to do something in her life that will make the world more beautiful.
"Her opportunity to reply to her grandfather comes later in her life, when she decides to sow lupine seeds all throughout the village she has moved to. Some people call her crazy, but the following spring, the village is filled with colourful lupine flowers, delighting everyone. She succeeds in making the world more beautiful, just as she had promised her grandfather. She becomes known fondly as the 'Lupine Lady,' and then entrusts her great-niece with the same dream.
"The daily efforts of our members also comprise a story that transcends generations and connects them with the vision of making the world a more beautiful place."
The Eternal Citadel of Soka, Brilliant Rainbow in the May Sky, May 10th, 2018, Seikyo Newspaper, translation released June, 2018
