-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Be vigilant
when it comes to snowfall,
remembering to avoid accidents
as our top priority!
While walking,
take small steps
in order to avoid falling.
To those delivering our newspaper,
don't put pressure on yourself to hurry.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
When a tree has been transplanted, though fierce winds may blow, it will not topple if it has a firm stake to hold it up. But even a tree that has grown up in place may fall over if its roots are weak.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"On a snowy day in Europe six decades ago, I spoke with members about the importance of continuing to press forwards courageously even amid blizzards of adversity. We affirmed that when we take action, our hearts, made small by fear, will open and expand; and when we apply ourselves with courage and determination, our circles of friendship and understanding will grow." February Editorial of the monthly study journal Daibyaku Renge 2023, You Are All Courageous Champions, translation released January 18th, 2023
