(Minghui.org) I have sent my sharing article to Minghui.org every year, but this year, I felt I didn't have anything to say. Thinking back, I know I did the three things every day, but nothing else special. I know my thinking was not right.
Practitioners have been involved in Dafa projects and cultivate every single moment. And Master protects us every single second. When I looked back, the things I have done were not big things but they have been all based on Dafa’s requirements. I know I should share those things.
Being Respectful and Eliminating Misunderstandings
My mother-in-law is 88 years old and has four sons. Our four families take turns caring for her.
I also have a daughter-in-law. I know my position and my in-law’s expectations. Especially because I am a Dafa practitioner, I need to do even better.
Once my mother-in-law arrived at my home, I helped bathe her from head to toe and change her clothes. I also took her shopping in her wheelchair and cooked good food for her. One lady commented that I am the best daughter-in-law in our village.
My behavior changed her attitude towards Dafa. Before, she warned me not to practice Dafa, but now she sees that I am very nice, especially to my in-laws.
Being Kind to Neighbors and Eliminating the CCP's Influence
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began persecuting Falun Dafa in 1999. As a result, one of our local practitioners was illegally arrested and tortured.
When she returned home, she seemed to have mental problems. Later on she came to believe in other religions and her mental problems got worse. Eventually, she hung herself. This didn’t go down well in our village.
I clarified the truth to my relatives and neighbors and told them it was the CCP that killed her and explained how. I reminded myself to cultivate diligently, to keep calm, and to use wisdom when dealing with problems.
I am also kind to everyone so I don't discredit Dafa. The time for cultivation is very limited, and I prefer not to spend much time chatting with my neighbors. However, on my way home from doing Dafa projects, I always passed by a group of people who were chatting. They stopped me and asked me to sit and visit. To be friendly, I usually sat a while and chatted. When they stood in front of my house to visit, I brought them stools to sit on.
When I see kids playing around, I give them snacks. My neighbors are very nice to me, too. They all know that Falun Dafa is not what the CCP’s propaganda has described.
There was one man who was particularly against Dafa at first. He even reported me to try and force me to give up Dafa. Now, he has changed his attitude and is nice to me.
All those changes are Dafa’s great merit.
Clarifying the Truth with My Personal Behavior
I usually traveled to other towns and had the opportunity to meet people there. Some of them did not know where the bus stop was or where they were supposed to go. Some were very tired from walking so long and wanted to be dropped off. I tried my best to help them by giving them a ride.
As long as my electric vehicle had power, I did not mind the long trip.
One person said, “Falun Dafa practitioners are very nice.” Someone else that I dropped off at a construction company said, “I can tell Falun Dafa is great from your personality. The CCP should not persecute you guys.”
My cultivation quality is still far from Master requirements! I will cultivate more diligently and improve myself.
I appreciate Master's compassion! I bow to Master! Heshi.
