Against a backdrop of warm twilight tones and a sky that fades to soothing mauve, a group of college students sit in a semicircle on a quiet campus lawn, talking among themselves with smiles of understanding and support. At their center, a large, transparent heart-shaped balloon rises slowly, filled with positive words such as "listen," "empathize," "grow," and "hope." At the bottom of the poster, in large, clear letters, is the encouraging slogan: "In the journey of spiritual growth, every step deserves to be heard and understood." --s 50 --niji 6
