(Clearwisdom.net) I was very happy when I obtained Dafa one delightful evening in 2005. I noticed the book Zhuan Falun at my sister-in-law’s home, and I borrowed it. From then on, my family’s fate changed. Soon after that, I put up a copy of Master’s picture in my home. My little daughter was just four years old at that time. When she saw Master’s picture, she was so happy and jumped around. My older daughter was nine at the time. When the older one got home from school, the little one called from upstairs: “Sister, Master is here. Master is at our home.” Later, the older one told me that she was excited and thought that Master had actually visited our home in person.

I sometimes regret that I obtained the Fa late and could not keep up with the Fa-rectification's progress. I eagerly studied the Fa. I read the Dafa teachings again and again. With help from fellow practitioners and with Master's guidance, I became a true Dafa practitioner. My husband often had to leave home in order to make a living. My two daughters and I formed a Fa study group. We studied the Fa, and memorized Lunyu and Hong Yin together. In the evening, my two kids and I went to nearby villages to distribute truth clarification material. Every time before we left, I always burned incense in front of Master's picture. Then, we sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all the evil beings and factors that interfered with everyday people and persecuted Falun Dafa practitioners.

One Sunday, I took my two kids to far away villages to distribute informational materials. I recited Hong Yin poems as I distributed the materials. The poems I recited the most often were “What’s to Fear,” “Expedition,” and “Tathagata.” Every time we went out, we felt that Master was by our side, especially when we distributed materials in villages at night. We never got lost, even when we were not familiar with the area and it was dark. My kids and I felt it was so amazing and miraculous. One evening, we headed back home after talking with a relative about Falun Dafa and the persecution. There were very few people on the road because it was winter, and the road was slippery. I held my kids’ hands as we walked and lost track of time for a moment. When I looked up, I discovered that we had arrived at our home. I really could not believe my eyes and thought, “How did I get home?” I thought about the road behind us, and I knew that it was not close to our home. I had no idea how it happened, so I asked my kids. They were sleepy, but when I asked, they became wide awake. They also felt it was strange and a miracle.

Our family has a righteous field. My two kids’ school work is excellent, and my husband is happy with our family. Before I started to cultivate, I had a bad temper. My health was not good to begin with, and when my two daughters were born, it was by Cesarean section. This caused my health to become even worse. I often felt that it was meaningless to live. Because of our bad financial situation, my husband often quarreled with me. When he swore at me, I would return the same. There were quite a few times when he hit me. Although I did not fight back, I used my hands to block him. After I started cultivating, Dafa changed me. When my husband swore at me again, I no longer fought back. Because I did not say anything, he calmed down and did not try to hit me anymore.

I was also selfish before cultivating in Dafa. Sometimes, I liked to gain petty advantages over others. For example, when I bought vegetables at the farmers’ market, I always tried to get more than I paid for. After beginning cultivation, I gradually got rid of this bad habit. Now, I return the money when someone gives me too much change. Once, I saw a woman taking some of my coal, which was left outside by the stairs. If this had happened before, I would have confronted her and started a fight. But this time, I did not say anything and just forgave her.

Because of my improvements, my husband also started to read Dafa books. Once, he took some informational materials about Falun Dafa to his work place. His colleague saw the material and said: “This is about Falun Gong. Where did you get it?” My husband replied, “Why? Is there anything wrong with reading this? Why are you so scared? With some blessings in your life, you might not be so poor.”

The four of us in my family often study the Fa and share our thoughts together, and we all look inward. In this way, our family is harmonious. Our kids are clear headed, and my husband often talks to our friends about the facts of Dafa. Although we are not rich, we have a happy life. It is all because of Master and Dafa that we have today’s life and everything we need. It is Master who changed me from being an ordinary person into a Dafa practitioner that even divine beings envy. For those things that Master has given, I do not have anything to give back. No matter how difficult the road of cultivation is, I will not waver. I will cultivate in Dafa and return home with Master.

The above is my personal understanding. I welcome all comments about anything inappropriate.
