He’d, overcome his impairments, and stood up on that stage, and performed his songs! From the Newspapers, translated…
Lee, who’d studied in the Taipei School for the Visually Impaired, received the Presidential Education Award this year, his sight declined steadily, as he got older, he majored in vocal, and minored in piano, used the braille sheet music, his own hearing, to learn music, and, became outstanding, competing with the regular students, managed to get accepted into Taipei Arts University’s music major. Yesterday was the graduation ceremony of the Taipei School for the Visually Impaired, he’d performed a song he wrote and penned the lyrics for, it’d made all who were in attendance cry.
here’s a photo of the young man, from online…
When Lee was born, there were the problems of the pigmentation of his visual neural network, which caused him to become lightly visually impaired, in the fifth grade, he’d started reading with a magnifying glass, and, as he entered into middle school, the rate of his eye sight deterioration exacerbated. Although he was losing his sight slowly, and bit by bit, he still carried that positive attitude in his own life. In his three years of high school, he’d not only gotten certified as a massage therapist, the street performer, he’d also won many awards in the speeches, the musical competitions as well.
Yesterday was the graduation ceremonies, Lee went on stage with his friends, to sing the graduation song for all, “Written, on the Eve of Graduation”, which took him a month in the past year to write the lyrics, the music for, it’d showed the sorrows of the visually impaired students, and, a lot of those who were present cried as he’d performed the piece.
This, is an amazing tale, of how this young man, refusing to get defeated by his handicap, strived for excellence, worked toward the goals he’d set for himself, and, achieved a great thing for himself, and this still showed, how when one door slams in your face, you just have to keep on looking, pushing at, all other doors, until you find one that’s, unlocked, and you can, pass through.
