(Minghui.org) I saw a woman washing herbs and vegetables in the common courtyard of our apartment complex last August. On a whim, I walked up and began talking to her.
She told me that she was visiting her son and pregnant daughter-in-law, but was upset that the expectant mom didn't like the food she made. Her daughter-in-law would not even deign to try the food.
I acknowledged her frustration. After all, not too many people in China nowadays know how to appreciate other people's hard work or kindness. Our conversation naturally turned towards the degeneration of people's morals and the ongoing natural and man-made disasters in China today.
She mostly agreed with me. I then asked her if she had heard of withdrawing from the Communist Party and its affiliated organizations,
She became alarmed, “Do you practice Falun Gong?”
“Yes,” I replied.
“I don't believe in anything but Communism and Marxism.”
Her expression changed.
“I have already met several of your people. Don't talk to me about this,” she said.
I smiled and changed the topic.
“Where do you work?”
She told me she was a teacher working at a school in another county.
“No wonder you speak so well,” I said.
Her smile returned.
I then shared my personal experience of practicing Falun Gong and informed her of the Chinese Communist regime's persecution of the practice. Many innocent practitioners are arrested, tortured, or even killed for the purpose of live organ harvesting.
I asked if she understood why so many practitioners risk their lives to tell people to quit the CCP. She wasn't too sure, so I explained the principle of karmic justice, and the idea that “what goes around, comes around.”
We just want people to avoid guilt by association when it is time for the CCP to pay for its crime against Falun Gong, I told her.
We talked for over three hours. In the end, she agreed to withdraw from CCP organizations. She even expressed interest in learning Falun Gong.
I gave her a copy of some software that breaks through the Great Firewall, DVDs of Shen Yun (a classical Chinese dance and music show that drew inspiration from Falun Gong), and Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, etc.
A few weeks later, I ran into her again when she returned to visit her son.
“I went back to work and told the secretary of the Communist Party at my school that I had withdrawn from the CCP and would not pay the membership fee anymore,” she said proudly.
She said she had watched all the disks I gave her. I told her that she could pass the disks on to her friends.
She promised to do so.
“I will help you save people,” she said.
