-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Those who continue to learn 
never encounter deadlock.
Even when we might feel 
we're overly busy,
let's try to make time to read 
and think
and continue to improve ourselves 
each and every day!

*Mr. Toda said, "Youth, make time in your heart to read and think seriously about things!" It's a matter of setting your mind to it. Those who claim they have no time haven't really made room in their hearts to do so. If the desire to read is there, there's no way you cannot find 10 or 20 minutes. You don't have to be sitting at a desk to read.
 (ref. Discussions on Youth by Daisaku Ikeda)
