Those Who Acknowledge Dafa Have a Bright Future

(Minghui.org) One of my granddaughters didn’t achieve good scores while she was in junior high school. She often complained that the teacher assigned too much homework and she developed resentment. To vent her frustration, she even gave the teacher a bad nickname. She cried whenever her parents asked her to take extra classes, but they couldn’t push her too hard. She was, quite frankly, a difficult student. Her father had low expectations and simply hoped that she would be able to support herself in the future.

From her situation, I came to realize that today’s education system is full of falsehood, negativity, and conflict, leading children down the wrong path. I showed my granddaughter the video of “Three Character Classic,” one of the classic Chinese texts. She was deeply inspired and felt that good children should study diligently and be filial to their parents. From that point on, she became self-disciplined, applied herself to her studies, and her grades improved rapidly. I told her about Falun Dafa and encouraged her to quit the Young Pioneers, one of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) youth organizations. At the same time, I asked her to recite the auspicious phrases, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” which she did.

She was only a few points away from being admitted to an excellent high school. This was a significant improvement from her earlier academic performance. Although she ended up attending a slightly less prestigious school, her grades consistently ranked among the top three in the entire school. Later, she gradually developed a sense of complacency, and wasn’t admitted to a top university on her first attempt at the college entrance exam. However, she didn’t give up. She repeated her final year of high school and was eventually admitted to a leading medical university. While in medical school, she found it difficult to handle dissections and autopsies, and ultimately decided to stop. The following year, she was admitted to another university with excellent exam results.

My neighbor, a kind lady in her 70s, came to understand the goodness of Dafa through local practitioners. During the COVID pandemic, community staff came to my home to harass me, but couldn’t find me. They turned to my neighbor to ask about my character. She stood on the side of justice and protected me with her kindness. She told them that I was a good person, and even gave specific examples to support it. As a result, the community staff stopped bothering me.

My neighbor’s husband works in a hospital, she manages a vegetable garden of about 0.2 acres on her own. Her vegetables grew well, especially her melons, which were popular among the locals. Many people preferred to buy melons from her. Her daughter and granddaughter also came to understand the truth about Falun Dafa and quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.

My husband was born in the countryside. His grandfather died while in the CCP’s army fighting with the National Party before 1949. After the CCP came to power, his deceased grandfather was recognized as a “martyr.” As a martyr’s family, they received a small annual pension from the government. Occasionally, the CCP granted small favors to the family, such as encouraging my husband’s brother to join the CCP and appointing him as a local team leader. Because Chinese farmers tend to be simple and trusting, his brother believed he was being “taken care of” by the CCP, and felt grateful to it.

However, his brother suffered from chronic diabetes for years. He had difficulty walking and was in poor health. I tried to persuade him to quit the CCP for more than 20 years, but he always refused, though he never opposed my practicing Falun Dafa.

This year, I patiently explained more about Dafa to him. He listened carefully, and came to realize that the CCP was deceiving good people and using them as expendable tools. Finally, he agreed to quit the CCP.

Not long after he quit, his walking became more stable. His vision, which had been blurry even after surgery, improved. He regained energy and was in good spirits. He was soon able to ride a motorcycle on his own. In his 70s, he would ride 30 kilometers (19 miles) to visit a relative, stay overnight, and return home the next day. He lived a full and happy life. He was deeply grateful, and often said, “Falun Dafa is amazing!”
