As we look back over the last year, our hearts should be full of gratitude for every minute, for every second of peace and safety. We must welcome the New Year with a sincere and pious heart.
This year will mark the 45th anniversary of Tzu Chi. I am very grateful for every day and for every hour that has passed. The achievements of Tzu Chi are due to the wisdom and hard work of so many people.
I am grateful to everyone for everything. May the year ahead be full of peace, wisdom and blessings for everyone.
-- Master Cheng Yen ’s New Year message
