被真理唤醒的心(90)

Souls Awakened

看守强迫我终日坐在牢房的小塑料凳上看中共诽谤法轮功的宣传材料。她们时不时透过牢房铁门上的一个小洞监视我和阿玉在里面的情况。

我一眼都没看那些宣传材料。我只在心里背诵《转法轮》。

这次酷刑使我懂得了很多。

一缕阳光偶尔透过牢房唯一的小窗照进来,我把伤残的右腿放在这一缕珍贵阳光的照射之下。

看守们在院子里走过时都打着伞防晒。我过去也这样。

自从腿残后被关进这阴暗的牢房、终日不见天日,我第一次感受到阳光如此珍贵。

我告诉自己:出去后珍惜阳光,珍惜和感谢我们在舒适的生活中自以为理所当然的一切天赐福泽。(待续)

(英文对照)

The guards forced me to sit on a tiny plastic stool reading the CCP propaganda material in the cell all day long. From a tiny hole on the iron door, they peeked to see if I and Yu were doing as they ordered in the cell every now and again.

I never took a glance at the propaganda material, just sat on the tiny plastic stool reciting Zhuan Falun in my heart.

The torture had made me understand a lot.

A ray of sunlight beamed through the cell window occasionally. I placed my disabled right leg beneath the precious sunbeam.

The guards all held up umbrellas shielding themselves against the hot sun as they walked past the yard. I did the same before being incarcerated.

After being locked in this dark cell without being able to see the sun and sky day after day after day, I for the first time felt that sunlight was so precious.

I told myself: After getting out, I must treasure sunlight, treasure and appreciate all the Heaven-bestowed blessings that we had taken for granted amidst comfortable living.
