…….. A primary ingredient towards building a better future is faith (and hope), strengthened with a sincere belief that such a future is possible. Such hope can be nurtured by moving towards a higher version of yourself by doing good works and being open to life in all its forms. Faith is cultivated through a consistent effort to move towards others striving to do the same, while being constantly on guard against ideas, people, and actions which destroy your faith…….(From page 312 of the book “Jumbo Jumble”) Author’s Comment: To be most effective, HOPE IN A BETTER FUTURE MUST BE EMPOWERED WITH ACTION, AND ACTION MUST BE INSTILLED WITH HOPE. As you build your faith, put it into practice and feel it grow and energize you. Otherwise, it remains as a dormant seed which isn’t nourished, and eventually loses all potential of beautifying the world. Ask yourself “How can I beautify the world?” And do it!

What Jambo Members Are SayingDavid Howenstein founded Jambo Japan in 1996. A man with many ideas on bettering the natural/human environment but also unsure how to implement them in a way to make a sustainable organization, he tried various courses of action throughout the years. Like many of you, he encountered frequent frustrations finding that the vast majority of his efforts ended in failure. However, through trial and error, he came upon a recipe for success in his adopted home. |
