State of Texas
Office of the Governor

Greetings:

As Governor of Texas, it is my pleasure to extend greetings to everyone celebrating the anniversary of World Falun Dafa Day.

The underlying principles of Falun Dafa --- truthfulness, compassion and forbearance --- can well serve us all, whatever our belief system, as we strive to improve our lives and our outlook. These principles serve to remind us of what is important in life: caring for those less fortunate, promoting honesty in all our affairs and giving of ourselves, even when it proves painful.

As such, I commend Falun Dafa practitioners as they seek to promote clear thinking, ease stress and overcome the many difficulties we encounter during our daily lives.

First Lady Anita Perry joins me in offering best wishes.

Sincerely,

Rick Perry
Governor
