-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's develop and advance in our lives 
even if it is just one millimetre more 
than where we are now,
while looking at where it is 
we want to be tomorrow. 
By living a life 
forever seeking improvement,
we will never find ourselves 
facing deadlock!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The secret to making good friends is being a good friend to others. It is treasuring your friends and extending a helping hand when they are having a hard time. I hope you will bravely reach out and talk to any of your friends who are struggling with illness or other challenging situations in their life. There may not be anything you can do to help them right away, but you can always chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo for their happiness."

Treasures of the Four Seasons, [3] Rainbows: Nothing Is More Beautiful Than friendship, from 1st June 2018 issue of Boys and Girls Hope News.. Translation released July 2019
