Romain Rolland said: There is only one kind of heroism in the world, that is, after recognizing the truth of life, still love life.
I once saw such a story in the People's Daily that a little girl lost her legs from an early age, but she never lost hope in life because of it.
She worked hard to get fit, learned to swim, started a business and did live broadcasting, made her life colorful, and lived out her most beautiful appearance.
The protagonist of today's story is also a disabled girl.
Her name is Lei Qingyao, and she is an authentic post-90s girl. It was such a young girl who created too many impossibilities.
She lost both arms at the age of three and became a swimmer at the age of 14, starring in the film Invisible Wings in the same year.
At the age of 17, he won the Huabiao Award and the Volkswagen Hundred Flowers Film Award for his films.
During his college years, he started his own business, set up a number of brand companies, and also landed on various David TV programs many times to give speeches.
At the age of 30, she also went to the catwalk of Fashion Week, with a beautiful skirt and a straight posture, and was known as the "Venus of the East".
She has made herself a legend and has also shown the beauty of life to the extreme.
For Lei Qingyao, the memory of the three-year-old still becomes blurred, but the experience of that year has changed her life.
The carefree play ended with a transformer of powerful currents, and since then she has been different from the average child.
But she did not give up her love of life, she learned to write with her feet, to wear clothes with her feet, to eat with her feet, and even to thread needles with her feet...
She did her best to make herself live like a normal person, and with this strength of not accepting defeat, she entered the school and studied like ordinary people.
In 2006, 16-year-old Lei Qingyao participated in the Fourth Paralympic Games, and this armless girl, who has been questioned, won four silver medals and two bronze medals in one fell swoop, and became an inspirational representative admired by everyone overnight.
In the same year, a director found Lei Qingyao and invited her to star in the movie "Invisible Wings".
The story of the film almost restores her life:
Zhihua, a young girl in the flower season, unfortunately lost both arms, and after overcoming many difficulties, won the first place in the swimming competition of the National Paralympic Games.
For Lei Qingyao, this is interpreting his own story, and it is also a new experience in life.
After the release of the film in 2017, countless moviegoers were moved to tears. With his outstanding performance, Lei Qingyao also won a series of awards.
Fame was accompanied by countless flashes, interviews, and activities.
At the age of 17, she became the brightest star.
When she went to college, she still did not change her persistent personality, stubbornly marching towards the unknown front.
After graduating from college, she became a TV host, and also appeared on the stage of "Super Speaker", and even founded her own brand and had her own business....
Every time she challenges her own limits, she constantly jumps out of her "comfort zone", becoming incredible in the eyes of others again and again.
In the face of praise from others, Lei Qingyao said:
I want to tell more people through my own behavior; and people like us are still trying to shine.
Admittedly, she did it through her own efforts.
In "Super Speaker", she used her own experience to touch and lead many disabled people like her, arousing their desire for life and expectations for the future;
When the Yushu earthquake occurred, she contacted the disaster area at the first time, and raised hundreds of thousands of yuan in donations and materials the next day to rush to the disaster area.
She uses her small ability to infect and influence many people.
Remember Yu Hua said in "Alive":
"The strength to live does not come from shouting, not from attacking, but from enduring the responsibilities that life has entrusted us, to endure the suffering that reality has given us."
Although we cannot change the suffering that life gives us, we can choose to face the feelings of suffering.
As the saying goes: Life is a mirror, and if you smile at it, it can smile at you.
Suffering has never been the purpose of our lives, and only by surviving suffering can we see the wonderful bloom of life.
Just like this armless girl "Venus of the East".
I hope that we can also be bold in life, fearlessly move forward, and also open up to cut through thorns and thorns, and finally get what we want.
