(Clearwisdom.net) I'm a young Dafa practitioner in Taiwan, now six years old. My health was very poor before. I often suffered from asthma until my entire body turned purple from my blocked air passages. Twice, when I had a very high fever, I listened to Mom reading Zhuan Falun (1). While listening, I felt much better and the fever was alleviated. Now through practicing Falun Gong, my body has become stronger and Mom doesn't worry about me any more.
I did not like to study the Fa (2) before, because I could not read. Since November of last year, when Mom brought me to a young practitioners' Fa-study class, I started to study the Fa. Mom first taught me to recite Hong Yin [collection of poems by Falun Gong's Founder]. When I could recite them, I began to teach myself the words by pointing to them with my finger. In less than six months I could recognize many words in Zhuan Falun. I also gradually learned the principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." Although sometimes I still fight with my older sister, most of the time we have a good relationship. Whenever I have some candy, an ice cream bar or a bowl of ice cream I share it with my sister.
The moms and aunties from the young practitioners' class in the Minghui School have often told us about the persecution of Dafa practitioners in China and great stories of Falun Gong practitioners' righteous thoughts and righteous deeds.
I thought those policemen who persecute good people in China were very bad, so I often asked Mom to help me make phone calls to the police in China. I wanted to tell them, "Don't persecute Falun Gong practitioners," "The self-immolation in Tiananmen Square is fake," "Don't believe the lies told by Jiang," and "Falun Dafa is great." After they listened to all these words, many people on the other end of the line would say, "Thank you." There were also some confused people who would swear at me or even hang up the phone. When Mom witnessed this, she would call them back, and then speak for a long time to let them know the truth. When our righteous thoughts were very strong, the call would go very smoothly.
One time Mom read me the sentences in Master's "Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Atlanta Fa Conference:"
"Even when in your daily life you pass by people so quickly that you don't have a chance to talk to them, you should still leave them with your compassion and kindness. Don't lose those who should be saved, especially those with predestined connections."
I bore this in mind and tried my best to tell people the facts of Falun Dafa. No matter where Mom and I went, to the food market or the park, we always brought a bag with us. In it was an of truth clarification materials and bookmarks, etc. Every time we arrived at a place or passed by some people, we would never forget to give them the information. If somebody had no time to come over to take the truth-clarification material, I would go over and hand the materials to them, and they would thank me.
Another time, Mom and I went to a shoe store to buy shoes. Besides giving the store owner some truth-clarification materials, I also told the owner that practicing Falun Gong was really good! My asthma had been cured because I practiced Falun Gong. Seeing that I was so young, the store owner didn't believe that I could do the Dafa exercises. I then demonstrated the five sets of exercises right away. Following that, I recited the entire pages of "Lunyu" (3). The storekeeper admired Falun Gong very much and kept asking Mom, "Are all the children practicing Falun Gong so smart?" Mom said with a smile, "Practicing Falun Gong will open one's mind." The store owner said he would ask his daughter to practice Falun Gong when he went back home.
