(Minghui.org) I am a young Falun Dafa practitioner, who began practicing just a month ago.

I was a girl who didn't like to study at all, so I stopped going to school. My father was very distraught over this, and he beat me. My mother begged me to return to school with tears in her eyes. My parents were both very worried, but I couldn't be persuaded. I didn't listen to them, and I stayed home and became lazy.

Three months later I found a job and began working. My boss was a kind and upright person. Not only did she teach me technical skills for my job, she also taught me principles for being a good person. She told me facts about Falun Dafa, and I quickly understood that Falun Dafa was good, and how to be a good person by following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I gradually let go of many bad habits.

I read the book Zhuan Falun, and learned Master's principles for cultivation and being a good person. I began to understand how to improve xinxing. I then learned how to do the exercises and began my cultivation, being strict with myself in my daily life.

My parents were very happy and relieved to see the positive changes in me and my life. Nearly everyone I knew, from family to neighbors, noticed the improvements in me, and remarked about how sweet and smart I had become.

One day I went to work on a scooter, and as I took a sharp turn a car ran into me. I, along with my scooter, flew over the car and fell hard to the ground. I couldn't get up. The driver of the car rushed out to help me.

Another lady got out of the car and helped me stand up. I was scared and started to cry. I then quickly thought about Master's teaching, “good or evil comes from a person’s spontaneous thought” and considering others in conflict." I stopped being afraid and calmed down. I said to them, “Don't worry, I'm okay. You needn't do anything for me.”

My scooter was badly damaged, and the car had a big dent in the front. I asked them if they wanted me to pay for the damage to their car. They said, “No, no. We are all right, we just want to make sure you are ok.”

Some bystanders said that I wasn't being smart, and that I should ask them to pay my expenses. I knew I would have acted differently if I didn't practice Falun Dafa. Master has saved me, and I should now behave as a practitioner. I should consider others first, and not ask for anything from anyone. They didn't hit me intentionally, so why should I make them suffer?

After cultivating for a month, I now understand that it is completely wrong for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to persecute Falun Dafa. The CCP is evil and Heaven will not tolerate it. I hope all people will wake up and come to learn the truth. Please remember “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Please choose a good future for yourself.
