-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The construction and development of something 
constantly requires painstaking efforts.
By overcoming any inertia or apathy we might have, 
let's move forwards with fresh new determination 
moment by moment.
Each step that we take 
challenging ourselves with tenacious efforts 
is helping us to achieve our very own 
human revolution.
