-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Meeting someone new 
is the beginning on a new stage 
in our lives.
Let's treasure 
each connection we make!
To the extent we create 
heart to heart bonds  
with other people
determines the colours we paint 
in the picture of our lives.

"Therefore, those who become Nichiren's disciples and lay believers should realise the profound karmic relationship they share with him and spread the Lotus Sutra as he does."

(Letter to Jakunichi-bō

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Problems and challenges will occur throughout our lives. But if we chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and work at forging an unshakeable self, we can calmly rise above life's troubles and confidently overcome them one by one, just like a mighty tree impervious to the lashing wind and rain.

"A mighty tree has solid roots. Similarly, those who put down deep roots can become like a mighty tree, undaunted by even the harshest storms."

Building a Bright Future Based on Our Vow, [13] The Lay Nun Ueno, Nanjo Tokimitsu's Mother, Your Heart Determines the Youth You Lead, from 1st April, 2019 issue of the Mirai (Future) Journal, translation released August 2020
