-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our dear friends 

who are making their debut 

in the working world,
struggling with new challenges,
advance patiently 

don't rush your journey to success!

All the hardships 

you encounter during your youth,

are certain to become the springboard 

for your making a great leap forwards.

Don't forget to smile 

and move steadily onwards!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Professor Arnold Toynbee believed that even in instances where knowledge hesitates and shrinks back, hope courageously steps forwards, advancing intrepidly and infusing life with eternal brilliance.

"Hope is strength. Hope is born of courage and wisdom; it is not born of knowledge alone. And faith is wisdom that gives rise to boundless and eternal hope.

"Let us of the SGI forever illuminate humankind with the light of hope, and let us construct a value creating civilisation shimmering with infinite hope.

"I am praying with all my heart for the prosperity of the lands in which you live, and for your happiness, health and wonderful endeavours."
