(Super Speaker: Dong Lina)
China national radio, it's 10 pm Beijing time.
Good evening, listeners and friends, and welcome to the program "Radio Stories" of china national radio Voice of Literature and Art FM 106.6 MHz. I'm Lena, the host today.
On this beautiful night, I especially want to invite you to put aside all your troubles and fatigue with me, let your heart calm down and quietly listen to the story of a blind girl pursuing her dream. Eight years ago, a blind girl took a train from Dalian to Beijing alone. It was the first time that she left home alone, facing the unknown future. But she went alone without hesitation, because it was an opportunity she had been waiting for for a long time, an opportunity that might allow her to seize her dream. Yes, this girl is me. I still remember the first time I went to a school for the blind when I was less than ten years old. At that time, the teacher told us every day that you must learn massage well in the future, because this will be the only way out for you in the future. How would you feel if someone told you that you and all of you can only do the same thing and live the same life? I really don't understand how life can see the end at the beginning. Why can't I choose my own life and dreams like others? If I can't even dream, how can I talk about dream realization? It was one day in 2006, a special opportunity. I saw a non-profit organization on the Internet, which could help blind friends learn broadcast hosting. Oh, I'm so excited. In fact, at that time, I really didn't know what a broadcast host was and what qualities I needed. I just wanted to grab a lifeline, gladly gave up all my work and set foot on the train to Beijing. I told myself that I must have a new beginning. Now, I can still clearly recall the first time I took a broadcast hosting class. It should be said that it was the real first lesson in my life. When the teacher made the first sound, I was immediately attracted by her voice. Knowing for the first time that the original voice can be so attractive makes you feel unwilling to touch it. Because of this, I fell in love with broadcasting, and I began to practice hard. Every day except sleeping, I may spend all my time touching Braille and practicing the pronunciation of every word. I am really tired, but I feel very happy, because I finally see hope, because I finally found what I want most. Later, I took part in a recitation contest. I am the only blind player among them. I got a good grade and a second prize. Then a judge came to me and said, I'm Jing Yidan. Do you want to go to china national radio? God, do you know how I will react when I hear this? China national radio, that's an announcer's dream, right? Is that the temple in the announcer's heart? So of course I want to go. I remember a particularly clear winter morning. Teacher Yidan took my hand and walked into the live broadcast room in china national radio. I walked to the microphone of the radio station and completed another first time in my life. I really looked like a child who got a gift that day. I am so excited that the whole world has heard my voice. I want to say that I once complained about the unfairness of fate when I was not sensible, but now I don't think so. I'll think, fate won't push you to the wall anyway. Sometimes I think that if I could really see, I might not be looking for a different life as I am now. Today is June 4th, 20 14, which is the same day when I first came to Beijing. Standing on my stage as an orator, through this microphone in my hand, I especially want to say to all mentally retarded people that although fate has given us a pair of invisible eyes, it has not given us a future where we can't see tomorrow. I can accept the special arrangement of fate, but I can never accept myself.
Thank you!
