(Minghui.org) My wife and I used to be hot-tempered. We cursed at each other and even got into physical fights during conflicts. The extent of the fighting worsened when she became ill.
After my wife began practicing Falun Dafa in 1996, our relationship took a 180-degree turn. We no longer argued or fought, and she took good care of me. We lived a harmonious life.
Dafa Lights Up Our Lives
I had a hot temper starting from a young age. After I got married, my wife tried to “tame” me. The problem was that her temper was worse than mine, and she threw at me anything she could get hold of. We got into physical fights, especially after I got drunk. The fights didn't just happen at home, but also in public and when I was with friends.
My wife later came down with severe inflammation of her colon and spine, and medications didn't help improve her condition. Seeing her suffer stressed me out and I got even more irritable.
I yearned for harmony. I wished that we were good tempered. Then, like a blessing, my wife began practicing Falun Dafa in 1996. She became tolerant and considerate, and we no longer argued or fought. She told me that as a practitioner she needed to be a good person.
I was skeptical at first, but she meant what she said. Once I was drunk and vomited all over the place. She cleaned everything up, including my face, without saying a word.
Another time I broke the television because I could not find the remote. She smiled and went to her room. The next day she acted as if nothing had happened. I was very nervous, and thought that she would fight with me because it was a very expensive TV. She just smiled and asked me to buy a new one so that I could watch TV that night.
She had totally changed. She was no longer hunched over, but stood upright. Her dark, waxy complexion became rosy and radiant, and she looked kind and friendly.
I knew that she respected me, and there was finally warmth at home. I became a supporter of Dafa.
Comminuted Bone Fracture Healed
My wife became healthy after she started practicing, and it has been 19 years since she has needed any medication.
She was hit by a speeding car while riding her bike in 2011. The driver was shaking, so she consoled him, and said that she would be alright because she practiced Falun Dafa. Her bike was a total loss, but she suffered only a bruise on her leg.
She was involved in another accident in 2014. She was thrown in the air and fell to the ground. She could not walk, and was diagnosed with a comminuted bone fracture of the right thigh bone. The doctor advised surgery, and warned that without it the bone tissue would die and she would become crippled for life.
Surgery was not even an option for my wife, even though the doctors and nurses warned of dire consequences. Our relatives and friends tried to convince her, but it was all in vain. My mother volunteered to talk to her. To my surprise, my mother, after talking to her, asked me to take her home, because she would be fine in a few days.
I told her that Dafa had not protected her this time, and that it would be irresponsible for her to risk becoming crippled, and not think about me and the children.
She said she was paying off the karmic debt that she owed, and if Falun Dafa had not protected her, she would have died in the accident. She convinced me that she would be fine, and reminded me that she became healthy after practicing Dafa.
The doctor took an x-ray of her bone ten days after the accident, and said that it had healed very well and that she would walk normally again.
