Headwinds are what enable
us to have the strength to fly.
Challenging those hard times
Challenging those hard times
is what allows us
to forge ourselves and develop.
Let's cheerfully face
Let's cheerfully face
each day and win!

"Mr. Toda once told me: 'Neither hope nor despair comes from others. Such emotions aren't dependent upon our situations or circumstances. They all come from within us. That's why you have to take responsibility for your own life.'

"Nichiren Buddhism teaches that we each possess within us an unsurpassed treasure and a wellspring of hope. Faith in the Mystic Law enables us to tap this source of hope limitlessly. Speaking from my 72 years' experience of practising Nichiren Buddhism, I can say without a doubt that this truly is the correct way of life."
