(Minghui.org) I’m 58 this year and I have been practicing Falun Dafa for over 20 years. I live each day by Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance. I strive to use my actions to clarify the facts about Falun Dafa and let people see the beauty of Dafa.
I was employed at a factory that produces fake eyelashes in 2021. I worked hard and got along with my coworkers. Once, one of the factory owners gave me 18 boxes of raw materials to work with. I finished them quickly. After I was done, instead of recording the work on the logbook as usual, the other factory owner wrote me a note, acknowledging the work I did. As I was busy with other work, I left the note on the table and forgot to take it when I left.
The next morning I looked for the note. The female owner who wrote it did not recall having done so. The male owner who gave me the work also said he had no memory of giving me the 18 boxes. I suggested that he could look at the surveillance camera to verify that I had done the work, but he said he didn’t have time.
Initially I was angry and wanted to argue with them. Then I thought, I’m a Falun Dafa practitioner and Master told us everything happens for a reason. I looked within and found my competitive mentality, resentment and attachment to profit. I let go of the urge to argue with them and thought I should just focus on getting today’s job done.
That night, I had a dream. Both of the factory owners were beggars in my village and I wanted to help them. After I woke up, I realized that I might owe them something from my previous life and now I’m paying back my debt.
Maybe because I let go of my attachment, when I went back to work that day, the male owner told me that he went through the surveillance video and saw himself giving me the 18 boxes of materials. The conflict was thus resolved peacefully.
