“The world we live in today is surrounded by many evils—social injustices and wars—which cause immense suffering and pain to countless people. If this world were to transform into a peaceful place free from such evils, it would become a world worthy of celebration for everyone. When peaceful and honest governments lead society, women can live with safety and confidence, and people will view one another as equals without any discrimination. Just as the bird in the picture carefully holds nature without letting it fall, humanity must also hold on to peace and never let it slip away.”
