【新唐人2011年5月26日讯】浪子回头金不换，下面的是一个年轻人的故事，修炼了法轮功以后，他从人生的低谷走出来，变得积极乐观，懂得为他人着想和付出。
这对幸福的新人，就是阿什利和他的新婚妻子苗苗。而6年前，阿什利是个完全不同的人，多娜是最早认识阿什利的法轮功学员之一。
法轮功学员多娜：“他当时非常迷茫、忧虑，他当时刚开始修炼法轮功，我有一个炼功点，他每周都来，我们一起炼功学法。”
炼功后阿什利变化很大
法轮功学员 阿什利梅洛希:“ 我的生活又开始变得有意义了。所有我过去经历的一切苦难，无家可归、疯疯癫癫、失去我拥有的一切、找不到工作、没有办法管理自己的生活，所有的一切都开始变化，因为（通过修炼）我学会了找自己的不足，我懂得了这些我所学的修炼原则都和日常生活紧密相关，在日常生活中做好每一件事都是修炼的一部分。我开始修炼一年之后，我去了卡尔加里，成了一名树艺家，偶然机会成了树艺家，接下来的冬天，我去Humber College读书。这些事情就这么发生了，我开始考虑我的事业、开始考虑我的未来。”
他的第一个雇主对他印象深刻
原雇主大卫沃茨：“我从没有见过比阿什利更努力的人，他努力成为一个树艺专家，最好的树艺专家。”
阿什利的新婚妻子这样评价他。法轮功学员苗苗：“（别人）有需要他帮忙的地方，他就觉得挺应该的，从来不会考虑他自己会损失什么啊，或者（占用）自己的时间什么的。其实我知道他的童年是比较坎坷的，有一次他和我聊天的时候就跟我说，他小时候吃过苦，他现在看到别人遭受痛苦的时候，就特别想帮助别人。”
他的高中同学和好友也感到了他的变化。高中同学好友拉赛尔：“他笑容多了，他更平和了，对人也更平和了，他开始看别人的优点而不是缺点，他成了一个很积极的人，当你在他身边，你也不禁面带笑容。”
从修炼法轮功中受益的阿什利，也想把真、善、忍的美好理念传递给身边所有人。

After practicing Falun Gong, there are great changes in Ashley.
Ashley - "My life started to make sense to me. All the things that I have gone through before that - being homeless, being crazy, losing everything I have, not able to keep a job, not being able to sort of manage my life. All of that started slowly turned and changed, because I learned (through practicing Falun Gong) to look
within myself, I have learnt that these cultivating principles that I learned about are all balanced very carefully with how you run your daily everyday life. And it is all part of the cultivation. And it is about a year after my practice has began, I went to Calgary and became a arborist, started to learn how to be a arborist. And
then the following winter, I went to Humber College. So these kinds of things, I really started to think about my career. I started to think about my future."
His 1st employer had good impression of him.
"Never met someone quite as focused as Ashley, regarding being an expert, being the best arborist."
Ashley's wife - Falun Gong practitioner Miao Miao said about him: "When someone needs his help, he always felt very willing to help, and never considering what he will loss, or that it will occupy his own time."
"In fact, I know he had a troubled childhood, and once he told me, he had a tough life since young, that was why now whenever he saw others suffering, he greatly wanted to help them. "
His high school classmates and friends also felt the changes in him.
"He smiles more. He is more at peace with himself, and at peace with everyone around him. And he looks at the good of people, not the bad in people. And he has become a positive person. When we are around him, we just want to smile."
Ashley who has benefited from practicing Falun Gong, also wants to spread the wonderful principles of 'Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance' to all people around him.
