(Minghui.org) Traditional Chinese culture values family. It is considered great fortune if four generations of a family can live together. Thanks to Falun Dafa's blessing, my family is one of the fortunate ones.
Parents-in-Law
I have practiced Falun Dafa for many years. When my family was going to move two years ago, I asked Master [Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa] in my heart to help us to find a suitable apartment for my family of four generations. In two days, we found one that was ideal. It was on the second floor, easy for my parents-in-law to get to, spacious, bright, and furnished. We were very happy with it and bought it two months later.
We gave the master bedroom, which faced south and had plenty of sunlight, to my in-laws. My father-in-law is 92. He can see and hear well and even go shopping and cook by himself.
My parents-in-law have a routine: after breakfast, they listen to Master's recorded lectures and then go for a walk. The neighbors say they have a good life.
Husband
My husband has learned a lot from Dafa. He often asks for Master's help when he runs into problems, and things are usually resolved smoothly.
When people say bad things about Falun Dafa, he stops them right away: “Do you really understand Falun Dafa? If you are not sure, please don't say it. Making bad comments is not good for you.”
He loaned 25,000 yuan ($4,000 USD) to a friend who passed away last year. His family promised to pay him back, but then they disappeared. My husband was upset because that was a lot of money for us.
Following Dafa's principles, I said, “Don't be bothered. You might have paid back what you owed them in a previous life. He lost his life—why are you still thinking about the money he owed you?”
His mind was settled, and he never mentioned it again.
Daughter
My daughter practices Dafa, too. She dated an honest, hardworking young man. The first time we met his parents, we told them we practiced Falun Dafa.
They were happy about it: “It is good to have a belief. Having a belief is better than not having one.”
Influenced by my daughter, her husband read Zhuan Falun, the main teachings of Falun Dafa. Everyone in his family started to understand Dafa and quit the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organizations. Her mother-in-law often repeated, “Falun Dafa is good.”
At my daughter's wedding, one of my relatives exclaimed, “Look at these Falun Dafa practitioners! Four generations live happily together. What a good life!” My aunt decided to learn Falun Gong then and there.
Son
My son used to spend a lot of time playing computer games. Eventually he developed severe cervical disease, which even impacted his ability to walk. He went to the hospital, but no doctor wanted to take him on. A doctor of Chinese medicine said he had a nasty tumor on his spine. A private clinic offered to treat him with Chinese medicine and promised results in a week. But there was no improvement after two weeks. The clinic returned his money and refused to take him on.
Having no other option, he turned to practicing Dafa. He deleted all his computer games. He also discarded his online game account, which he could have sold for tens of thousands of yuan, but he didn't want anyone else to be victimized.
He studies Dafa and does the exercises every day. He listens to the lectures on his bus ride to work.
He has become the most sought-after employee at work. His job was technical support. His colleagues call him for help on issues big and small, although many of them are not in his area. He always takes them on and runs from place to place with no complaints. His manager praises him for his dedication.
My daughter-in-law hit an elderly woman collecting trash on her bike. She took her to the hospital, and the woman was fine. But her family came to us, asking for compensation. I paid her hospital expenses and gave them an extra 5,000 yuan. I also told them about Falun Dafa and its persecution by the Communist Party. They all quit the Party, and our two families became friends.
Grandchildren
When my daughter-in-law was four months pregnant, the doctor said there was a problem with the baby and suggested she have an abortion. At that time, my son was reading a book about how Master Li helped practitioners with their difficulties. He said, “Master is so generous! I don't trust anyone but him. I'll let him decide the fate of my son.”
By her eighth month, everything was fine. The baby was born healthy, weighing eight pounds. He listens to the Dafa lectures every day. He is nearly three years old and can recite over 50 of Master Li's poems.
He did not cry during his first year. My mother-in-law said, “I have never seen a child like him. It's almost as if he doesn't know how to cry.”
My daughter and her husband had wanted to have a baby for a long time but could not conceive. My daughter then told her husband to recite the phrases “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” He did it a hundred times every day, and she soon became pregnant.
