Towards 2030 – April 19, 2026

I’d like you to work hard to become the kind of leaders whom others regard as a source of reassurance, clarity, peace of mind, and courage—people who inspire confidence and hope. Never issue commands or orders from on high. Be kind and considerate leaders who warmly impart a sense of security to everyone. Be strict with yourselves and generous toward others. That’s the hallmark of people with strong faith.

Towards 2030 – April 18, 2026

In every era, there is serious suffering. And in every era, youth is a time full of worries and emotional turmoil. School is not the only issue. There is family, health, looks, relationships, friends—all sorts of problems to deal with. There is suffering, anxiety, frustration, and sadness. Youth is a time of grappling with all sorts of problems.
