(Minghui.org) I’m 77-years-old and only attended three years of elementary school. I wanted to write sharing articles but I couldn’t put my thoughts into words. I discovered many shortcomings today while I memorized the Fa and looked inward.

I was self-centered and only looked at things from my perspective. I thought highly of myself and blamed others for treating me poorly. If someone treated me badly, I labeled him as a bad person and I had a negative opinion of him. I harbored resentment and hatred, although I didn’t show it.

After I read the Fa I realized it’s actually a good thing when others treat me poorly. After I understood this I improved a bit.

My oldest daughter-in-law has been displeased with me. I searched inward but I couldn’t figure out what I did wrong. After I studied and memorized the Fa, I realized I failed to improve myself—instead I blamed others. It was my fault for creating that kind of environment. Because of my selfishness, I might have hurt many people in my life. I’m sorry, and I would like to sincerely apologize to those whom I’ve hurt.

I was extremely selfish, narrow-minded, uneducated, inept, and stubborn as a block of wood, and Master gradually transformed me. I’m now able to put others first and be more considerate.

In the past, all I could see was other people’s shortcomings and I never looked at myself. I thought I was perfect in every way and I was always right. It was invariably someone else’s fault when things went wrong. I can see my faults and shortcomings now. This is a monumental change, and it’s due to Dafa’s power and Master’s compassion.

I’ve improved and become a better person as I continue to study the Fa, memorize the Fa, search inward, and follow Master’s guidance. Master has expended so much effort and energy on me. Thank you, Master!

I will strive to rectify myself, do my best to let go of selfishness and self-interest, and not harm others. I will spend more time to study the Fa, send forth righteous thoughts, and awaken more people, so that I can go home with Master.
