It is only through such real-life daily struggles and challenges that a genuine sensitivity to human rights can be inculcated. This is a truth that is not limited to school education: it applies to all of us.

A moment’s encounter can decide the direction of one’s entire life

The eyes of a poet discover in each person a unique and irreplaceable humanity. While arrogant intellect seeks to control and manipulate the world, the poetic spirit bows with reverence before its mysteries.

Like the ocean that remains calm in its depths even when waves rage over its surface, and like the sun that continues shining on high even during storms, we can at each moment create value and develop our state of life, enjoying our existence to the fullest in times of both suffering and joy.

We are not merely passive pawns of historical forces; nor are we victims of the past. We can shape and direct history.

What matters is the value we’ve created in our lives, the people we’ve made happy and how much we’ve grown as people.

To communicate the truths of history is an act of hope for the future.
