You may remember the story and video of Liu Wei performing on China’s Got Talent a while back. It’s an inspiring story of a teenager whose arms were amputated at 10 after an electrical shock while playing hide-and-seek damaged them beyond repair. Instead of accepting his condition passively, Wei decided that he wanted to teach himself to play the piano with his feet. He was repeatedly told that he could not do this, and yet he persevered.
Well, now he’s won the national TV talent show.
My question to myself, and to you, is this: in a similar circumstance, would you, or would I, be able to overcome a setback to produce such an inspiring life story?
Congratulations to Wei, and may he go from strength to strength.
