Diasaku Ikeda – Women are the Nurturers and Givers of Life.
Women are, in my view, natural peacemakers. As givers and nurturers of life, through their focus on human relationships and their engagement with the demanding work of raising children and protecting family life, they develop a deep sense of empathy that cuts through to underlying human realities.
Daisaku Ikeda
Who brings us into this world?
Nurturing us
Raising us up like little flowers
Who seed in the ground
Sprouting up
To become the beautiful blossoms
That fill the world
Doing good for others
Making the world a better place
Yes it is a woman
Who plants the seed
And watches it rise out of the ground
To become a soul and a heart
Spreading joy throughout the world
To women we owe everything
