Learning the art of seeing beyond limitation
This February, I journeyed through Fujian province with Wang Yongcheng, a deputy to the National People's Congress and the only visually impaired member among nearly 3,000 NPC deputies. My aim was to observe his work, but instead, I gained a profound lesson in what it truly means to "see" the world.
At 58, Wang, a native of Fujian, cannot see with his eyes. Yet throughout our travels, he demonstrated remarkable empathy and awareness. He knew the personal stories of every disabled resident we met — not just their names and situations, but their unspoken struggles and deeper needs.
