Got this email from my friend, i think was amazing see how people pulll through despite of hardship and trial..I am amaze by their performance and their "never say die" spirit..And the story goes...
The lady in her 30s was a dancer and was trained as one since she was a
little girl. Later she got into some kind of accident and lost her entire
left arm. She was depressed for a few years. It seemed that someone asked
her to coach a Children's dancing group. From that point on, she realized
she could not forget dancing. She still loved to dance. She wanted to
dance again. So she started to do some of her old routines. But by her
losing an arm, she also lost her balance. It took a while before she could
even making simple turns and spins without falling. Eventually she got it.
Then she heard some guy in his 20s had lost a leg in an accident. This guy
also fell into the usual denial, depression and anger type of emotional
roller coaster. She looked him up (seemingly he was from a different
Province) and persuaded him to dance with her. He had never danced. And
to dance with one leg? Are you joking with me? No way. But she didn't give
up. He reluctantly agreed. ' I have nothing else to do anyway.' She
started to teach him dancing 101. The two broke up a few times because the
guy had no concept of using muscle, control his body, and a few other basic
things about dancing. When she became frustrated and lost patience with
him, he would walk out. Eventually they came back together and started
training. They hired a choreographer to design routines for them. She
would fly high (held by him) with both arms (a sleeve f! or an ar m) flying in
the air. He could bend horizontally supported by one leg and she leaning on
him, etc. They danced beautifully and they legitimately beat others in the
competition.
I would like to share with you this most magnificent and touching
performance I have ever seen! It is a living proof that strong spirit can
conquer any physical limitations! View the performance at this...
