---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
Seek out friends you can trust, rely on, and consult with, and resolve to become such an individual yourself.

Mr. Toda said: 'Make friends with even just one person whom you can share your heart with or who can teach you about faith in times of need.'

...Since you possess within you the supreme treasure of the Mystic Law, you have nothing to fear. Even if your efforts go unnoticed by others, the Gohonzon is aware of everything, and all the Buddhas and heavenly deities throughout the universe will definitely protect you. So please don’t worry about anything. Have confidence in yourself, and just do your very best.
