-- TO MY FRIENDS --
There is no one who doesn't have 
problems and concerns.
Don't take it all on yourself, 
talk with someone you feel 
you can freely confide in.
Through expressing 
our thoughts and feelings
and talking with others,
we're able to return 
to the starting point
of our faith and practice.
From there our dramatic  
revitalisation begins!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The mind of faith is free and boundless in expression, far-reaching and eternal. The Daishonin writes: 'From this single element of mind spring all the various lands and environmental conditions' (WND–2, 843). Taking these words to heart, let's continue advancing with bright confidence into the new year, united in spirit with the Daishonin and in rhythm with the Mystic Law, our sights set on establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land, realising worldwide kosen-rufu and ensuring the eternal transmission of the Mystic Law!"
