(Clearwisdom.net) After the persecution began in July 1999, I was arrested and detained. When I returned to work, my colleagues treating me like a criminal and I was kept at a distance. The managers ignored me like I did not exist and they would intentionally walk away from me. As Dafa disciples began to clarify the truth, more and more people learned about the goodness of Dafa. Because of the special environment in China at the time, they used unique ways to express themselves.

Around Chinese New Year this year, I joined our company party. Many of my colleagues and managers took the initiative to shake hands with me and wish me a happy new year. Some fellow workers told me quietly, “The Shen Yun DVDs you gave us are so nice; all of the programs from start to finish are marvelous!”

Before the party was over, I saw several managers talking in the hallway. I wished them a happy new year. One of them took my hands in his. I said, “Sorry, I just washed my hands and they are still a little bit wet.” To my surprise, he held my hands tighter and answered, “Clean hands are even better. Let me hold them a while longer!” Another manager placed his hands on ours and joined us. He said, “Everything is better now, tomorrow will be even better!” Then more people joined by placing their hands on ours and said, “Include me! Add me!” There was a group of us holding our hands together tightly and grinning! Our smiles came from the bottom of our hearts! We all knew the persecution would soon come to an end.

From not far away, one of the managers from the department who had participated in the persecution was watching us. I think Master was asking him to wake up by showing him how people support Falun Dafa now.

On my way home, I thought about what had happened, and it brought tears to my eyes. People are awakening and the iceberg is melting. The people of China are awaiting a bright future!
