(Minghui.org) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner who emigrated from China. I have no complaints, only gratitude for my fellow practitioners, as well as the people in charge of Dafa projects and the head of the Falun Dafa Association, from the first day I began to cultivate, which was over 10 years ago.
My regards go to local practitioners involved in preparing large events. They set up large posters, hold banners, and prepare audio equipment. This allows other practitioners to participate in large events and show the public what Dafa is all about.
The effort put in by local practitioners that make it possible for me to participate in a Fa study group is highly appreciated. They not only find a venue, but also apply for a permit. Because of their contribution, we have a good environment for group study and sharing experiences.
Dafa informational materials are ready for distribution because many practitioners help to write, edit, print, and transport them. For this I give my gratitude to everyone involved.
Most importantly, I am grateful when a fellow practitioner asks me for help. As long as I have the ability, I will accept any assignment. I thank them for the opportunity to help prepare for events, projects, or anything else.
I am fortunate, because I can participate in an internet Dafa truth-clarification project. Given many limitations, especially because of the few abilities I have, I can only do some basic work. My gratitude is limitless when I sit in front of a computer monitor. Because many practitioners contribute, I have the chance to participate in this project.
When needed, I make suggestions in a constructive way when it appears that someone is slacking off and not doing well. It does not matter if the person accepts my suggestion, because I do not know the whole situation and cannnot put myself in his or her shoes. Most importantly, I will not complain or whisper with others about another practitioner.
We are practitioners, and we have all reached different levels in our cultivation. It is normal that there are different views on an issue.
To my chagrin, I noticed that some practitioners quit a project when fellow practitioners did not accept their suggestions. Their abrupt departure was a great inconvenience.
Some practitioners do not put forward constructive views, but prefer to criticize and bring up the shortcomings of a project, although they are not involved in it.
Then there are those who complain about the person in charge of a certain project or the head of the Falun Dafa Association.
Practitioners' words have power, as Master had told us many times. As long as we have a righteous attitude and view everything from a different angle, we will have different understandings. That does not mean that we are not a part of the one-body of Falun Dafa cultivators.
