Zhao Jing is now a famous calligrapher(书法家) in Anhui. His works are getting more and more popular. Zhao Jing was a worker in a factory several years ago. His family lived a happy life until an accident happened to Zhao Jing.

One day, he was badly hurt by a large machine. The operation lasted for three hours. He woke up to find that he had lost both of his arms. That made him so sad that he even thought of ending his life. However, his wife's and parents' selfless love helped him to cheer up again. “I shouldn't depend on my parents or my wife for the rest of my life. I want to learn penmanship(书法).” Zhao Jing told his family about his resolution.

Zhao Jing went from door to door to collect waste paper. He bit(咬) the writing brush with his teeth and began to write. He keeps on writing for thirty years. The piles of used paper and so many old brushes in the room made his dream come true. He is so good at penmanship that he has won lots of prizes.

“Never Give Up Your Dreams” is Zhao Jing's motto(座右铭) and he will continue his steps.
