When I began writing this article, I was feeling very irritable. I had already recognized this attachment, in fact it had been very obvious for several days, but I was still covering it up. The situation was that I would lose my temper whenever I discussed issues with my classmates, and I would rationalize my temper by saying, "I have a quick temperament. It is my character to do everything fast-paced." Actually, being fast is different from being irritable. Being irritable is a manifestation of demon nature, which is a psychological trait, but being fast is not a psychological trait. Being fast just refers to the speed of doing things.
Last time when I submitted an article to Clearwisdom.net, I did not do much editing after I finished it. I felt that published articles could validate Dafa, so I wanted to send in the article quickly. I also wanted feedback on my article from fellow practitioners who run the Clearwisdom.net website. I thought that if it gets edited, it must mean that I do not have a good understanding, or my actions are not right in certain areas. Actually, I was impatient. I should have been responsible to Dafa and thoroughly edited my work. In addition, I did not consider my fellow practitioners' time when sending in my unpolished article for them to review.
This time, I want to write about a small incident in my life. I have just bought a xiaolingtong (a cellular phone that works within a limited area, like one city). It is precious to me. I am very careful with it every time I use it. Without my knowing it, I started to have an attachment to its screen and I became afraid that it might get scratched. One night, while in a hurry, I went to check the time, and I noticed that my xiaolingtong had disappeared. I am a student and I would not have the money to buy another one, not to mention that not having it would make my daily life very inconvenient. I began calling my xiaolingtong from my cellular phone, and hoped that whoever picked up the call would return it to me. I ran back about 50 meters, and then I heard my xiaolingtong. It was lying on the street face down. I went over and picked it up. Later, I told my classmates about it. They all said that I was very lucky to get it back after losing it on such a busy street. Then I noticed several large scratches on the screen. I suddenly understood that I had such a great attachment to it. Since then, I don't think about the screen anymore; on the contrary, I have relaxed about it.
I practice Falun Dafa in isolation. No Falun Dafa practitioners ever contact me. Sometimes my understandings of Falun Dafa are not very deep, but Teacher has not left me behind. He looks after me everywhere and points things out for me. Recently, I often feel that I am in a peaceful environment, and when I am motionless, I can feel Falun turning in the palms of my hands. I must set high standards for myself and continue my journey of cultivation with solid steps, do well the three things that Dafa disciples should do, and not disappoint Teacher's compassionate salvation. My level is limited, fellow practitioners, please kindly offer help where needed.
