(Clearwisdom.net) I am a high school student, and I have just passed the intermediate exam and entered high school. I have known about Falun Dafa for ten years, since my mother is a Dafa practitioner. When I was little, I joined my mother in group Fa study, and practiced the exercises with her.
After the persecution of Falun Gong started on July 20, 1999, my attachments to the ordinary world made me distance myself from Falun Dafa. During my first and second years of middle school, my grades were okay. But in my third year, my grades suffered a drastic decline. I was previously in the top 200 students in a student body of 800. But I dropped down to around 500th in the ranking. As the time approached to take the intermediate exam, I was barely worried about that fact. When I told my mother about this, she asked me, "Have you ever thought of Master or Dafa?" Ashamed, I shook my head. My mother told me, "It's time you studied the Fa again."
During the semester just before the intermediate exam, I spent my free time studying the Fa with my mother. I silently recited "Falun Dafa is good" and "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good" on a regular basis, and I soon realized that my previous struggles with physics and math had changed. Usually I would get stuck on math problems and had to read the them at least three to five times, and still couldn't figure out the answer. But that soon changed to just skimming the question, and the answer came to me right away. I told my mother the good news, and she told me it was Master who had opened my wisdom. I thanked Master again and again. On my fourth year final exam, my math grade was 136 points out of a total of 150. In my third year final exam, I had barely scraped by, so my teachers and classmates were surprised at the sudden improvement.
On the day of the intermediate exam, I kept thinking "Dafa is good," "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good," and calmly entered the exam room. During the course of the exam, I felt very confident. When the results came out, I saw that I had passed and was qualified to enter a very good high school. My whole family was proud of me. I told them, "It was Master who helped me. You should thank him," and my family agreed. On the intermediate exam, I got 147 out of 150 points in math. Usually, I scored only 80 points or less on a physics exam, but the results of this test were 108 out of 120 points. This was truly amazing.
I am now in a key high school where the teachers are very strict. I thought chemistry was a very hard subject and eventually I fell behind. I started asking for Master's help and practiced answering the questions at home. After a while, I slowly began to grasp the concepts. Although I'm still a little confused, I will always remember to think about Master and Dafa before I do anything. At the same time, I would like to see more people awaken to the Communist regime's lies and recognize Dafa as I did, be a part of it, and be saved by Dafa.
