-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's try to be on the lookout 
 for those who are working hard 
  behind the scenes,
let's do our best to praise them 
 for all their selfless actions and dedication!
As a true Buddhist, 
 let's always be focusing 
  on those who are struggling
   and imbue their hearts with courage 
    so that they really feel,
"Wow, someone really cares about me,  
   way more more than I expected!"

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Today, when division and isolation are rife in the world, members in our districts, despite various hardships, continue to stay in touch with one another, deepen their unity, and wisely persevere in creating value towards the ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land' in their communities. By weathering this challenging time, our districts, beacons of revitalisation, of human harmony, are certain to shine all the brighter and even illuminate global society."

From the October Editorial, Soka Districts Are Beacons of Happiness, October 2020 issue of Daibyaku Renge, translation released December 2020.
