1. A Little Girl's Sweet Smile

One day I went to a park to collect signatures to gain support to end the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China. I saw a mother sitting on a bench resting with her three daughters. I approached her and invited her to sign the letter. She shook her head to refuse without taking a look at the petition letter. As I was about to leave, her eldest daughter (about 6 years old) smiled and indicated that she wanted to see the petition letter. Having read the petition letter, she exchanged a few words with her mother. After talking with her daughter for a few minutes, the mother also indicated that she wanted to read the petition letter. After her perusal, she signed the letter and turned her head to look at her daughter. At that time her daughter had a sweet smile on her face.

2. "Falun Gong is Good"

Once I walked by a vendor. I really wanted to invite him to sign the petition, but at the same time I wasn't sure if it was convenient for him to do so. I noticed that he was handicapped, and I finally left after some hesitations. Later, I again walked by his stand. As I was introducing Falun Dafa to someone and collecting the signature of a passer-by, a man came up to me. With a lot of interest, he asked me what I was doing. At that point, I introduced Falun Dafa to him and he signed the petition. Then he asked me to wait, saying that he wanted his friend to sign as well. A few moments later, he came back with his friend, who happened to be the vendor I saw earlier. The vendor made quite an effort to read the petition letter and proclaimed, "Falun Gong, good! Stop the persecution!" With great effort due to his disabled hands, he carefully signed his name.
