(Minghui.org) On February 4, 2012, at 8 a.m., I went to a park where I saw an older woman with a child near the exercise equipment. I walked over to them to talk to the woman.
The woman was 70, and her grandson was 13. They came from Jiangsu Province. The woman had came to her son's home for Chinese New Year. Soon we were talking like old friends. She looked at me and said, “I see you have a nice complexion and appear to be very healthy. You must be younger than I.” I told her, “I am 74 years old.” She was surprised and asked me how I had stayed so healthy, what I ate to maintain such health and vitality. I said, “I lead a simple life and do not pay much attention to what I eat. I am fine as long as I am not hungry.” I explained that I was once very weak and suffered from high blood pressure and heart disease. I was often hospitalized and had to take pills every day just to stay alive. My right leg was severally injured in 1990. The hospital in our city could not help, so I went to the provincial hospital. The doctor there told me that there was no cure, and I had to have fluid removed from my leg periodically. I was not able to ride a bicycle, and just walking was often difficult. Shortly after, a friend recommended I learn the practice of Falun Gong. This was a fortunate turn of events, for soon after I began the practice, a miracle happened. All my illnesses disappeared. Now, at the age of 74, I can ride a bicycle for 15 miles every morning. I feel strong and healthy.
The woman's face lit up as she eagerly asked me if I could teach her this practice of Falun Gong. I was touched by her words. As soon as people know the truth, they have hope to be saved. I held her hands in mine and responded, “You want to practice Falun Gong, you are very fortunate. Thousands of years' waiting and tens of thousands of years' hope, and you finally get to today. I will help you get a copy of Zhuan Falun immediately. This book teaches you how to be a good person by following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. You will understand if you sincerely read the book. Also, I will give you a DVD copy of The Great Consummation Way of Falun Dafa. You can learn the five sets of movements by watching the DVD.” Before I even finished talking, she had tears in her eyes and said, “Thank you! Thank you!” I said. “Don't thank me. You should thank our Falun Dafa Master.”
She was very pleased and said, “I have met a good person today. I have had a difficult life. Last summer, at a bridgehead in my hometown, I met a fortuneteller and asked him for my fortune. He looked at me intently and then said that I would have good fortune on February 4th of this year. The fortuneteller was correct.” We shed tears of joy and appreciation together.
