A friend of mine who does not practice Falun Gong went back to Beijing during the time of the National People's Congress. At the hotel where my friend was staying there were many congressional representatives. He asked many of them, "How do you personally view Falun Gong?" Although it's difficult and dangerous for a lot representatives to comment directly, many of them still said, "Sooner or later Falun Gong will be redressed!"

My friend also mentioned that he had met one of his former coworkers in China. This coworker mentioned a young man in his company who always said that he tries to do things according to "Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance." His supervisor could not help saying, "You have to be very careful!" The young man smiled, "If everyone does things according to 'Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance', it will be great!"

My friend also said to me, "If your Falun Gong is redressed, it will be a significant event." I told him, "I am not doubtful about this at all!"

Although my friend does not practice Falun Dafa, he still thinks that we should have the right to cultivate openly. He is appalled by the cruel persecution in China, and finds it extremely repugnant.
