Alone, one's sufferings only deepen. Hope disappears. Humans need to be with and among other human beings. Engagement with others forge our characters and enriches us.
~Daisaku Ikeda

Being alone may seem carefree and undemanding, but it is a very sad and lonely experience. Cut off from others, we can neither polish our character nor develop our potential. The challenge lies in developing truly rich human relations. Good human relationships are treasures that enrich our lives.
~Daisaku Ikeda
