-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's offer warm words 

of encouragement 

to our friends who are dedicated to 

raising children, 

caring for the elderly

and nursing the sick and needy!

Those who protect and support 

families are the true practitioners of
the dignity of life.
Together, let's advance along 

this great path of

happiness and longevity!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The Daishonin says: 'You must not spend your lives in vain and regret it for ten thousand years to come' (WND-1, 622).

"Our present life is short, but life itself is everlasting. Through our efforts in this brief existence, we can accumulate eternal good fortune and benefit. This is why we mustn't allow ourselves to have any regrets in our work for kosen-rufu in this lifetime. What's the point of faith if we die with regrets?" 

10th Soka Gakkai Headquarters Leaders Meeting, Moving from a Focus on Self to a Focus on Others, Sep. 6th, 2022 issue of the Seikyo Newspaper, translation released December 2022.
