“Thank you for your discrimination; Sooner or later, I will make you regret it”
These were the words of Liu Wei - a disabled Chinese who got to the final round of ‘China’s Got Talent’.
Liu lost his two arms at the age of 10 through an accident but did not lose his will to carry on in life. His disability did not stand in the way of reliving his passion for music.
He was rejected by many music and piano trainers for his amputation, look and lack of skills. However, Liu later trained himself how to play the piano by foot-walking the piano keys with his feet.
Today, Liu won the ‘China’s Got Talent’ competition.
Do you feel a limitation upon your opportunities based on what people call your disabilities – race, gender, colour or belief? Borrow some thoughts from Liu.
You may not need to voice it like Liu did, but you will surely need to stay strong in your resolve to work around your disabilities.
Sooner or later, you will make those who rejected you regret they ever did.
