The day I was going to leave this world that only gave me stress, as I turned my head I suddenly saw a blue sign saying “Meditation” right in front of me. “Yes, let’s at least try going in there once before I quit.” I went into the meditation with a frozen heart. As the meditation helper explained the mind world and the pictures, she said “Transparent film” and made a sound effect as she peeled off the strip of film. The moment she pulled off the film, I was shocked. I realized that the circumstances that made my life difficult was the false “photo”, which is non-existent and I registered and started meditating immediately.
I threw away all of the medication, which I once took three times a day by the handful. My back pain, which was so severe I once had to be rushed to an emergency room, and my diarrhea that had lasted more than 30 years both improved. I did not even drink the alcohol that I once used to relieve the hardships in my heart. My sons in 9th and 6th grade asked me about my changed situation. “Mom, does your mind become white when you practice Meditation?” I replied. “Yes, yes it does. Would you guys like to try it?”
So after the kids attended the youth meditation camp, they changed a lot. Now we smile and talk about the holes that were created by angry punches during my sons’ puberty. Laughter began to bloom like a flower in our household. I am diligently preparing to encourage my husband so that the day will come when he can do the meditation with us.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
