The Truth and People's Hearts
The following is an excerpt from the article "Such a good person still exists in this day and age?"
I picked up a bag on the way to work on June 2003. Inside was 700 Yuan in cash, an ID card, phone numbers, etc. I called the person, and asked him to come and get his stuff. The next day, he drove to my home from far away. He said, "I am shocked to see such a good person still exists in this day and age. I would truly like to meet such a person." My mother told him the facts about Falun Dafa. He smiled, and said, "I know Falun Dafa is good. I will tell this to people when I go home. I want my friends and family all to know about Falun Dafa practitioners' good deeds." There was a big crowd in front of my home. One neighbor heard my mother clarify the truth, and said many disrespectful words about Dafa in front of the crowd. Two days later, she found my mother and said, "I should not say anything disrespectful to Dafa. My legs are in pain and I cannot walk. I know that I have done wrong."

None of the persecutors in human history have met with good endings. The truth cannot be covered up, and deceptive means can only last momentarily. The truth is sure to be revealed in its entirety to the human world.
