During the 2021 Shanghai Fashion Week, a young, slim and confident model with an iron leg drew everyone's attention. Her name was Niu Yu. She lost her right leg in the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake. She was only 11 years old then.
Niu Yu used to be in the school sports team. She loved running. But the disaster broke her dream. She had to live with an artificial leg. It wasn't comfortable, and her leg often bled. People's curious eyes made her even more uncomfortable. She always tried to hide her leg under jeans or dresses.
With the support of her family and friends, Niu Yu slowly came out from the shadows. In 2018, right before her 21st birthday, she decided not to hide her leg any longer. To her surprise, she received lots of encouraging words. She also finished a half marathon in about 4 hours. She completed the hard 10 - year journey of finding herself again.
Niu Yu put her experiences on social media. She talked to disaster survivors and encouraged them to look forward. In 2023, she carried the torch at the FISU World University Games. "It is a great honour for me," she said. "But it is also a good chance to show people the power of being brave."
A disaster can bring wounds and pain. But we should always face them with courage. As the writer Nora Ephron once said, "Above all, be the hero of your life, not the victim."

在2021年上海时装周期间,一位有着一条金属腿、年轻苗条且自信的模特吸引了所有人的目光。她的名字叫牛钰。她在2008年汶川地震中失去了右腿。那时她只有11岁。
牛钰曾经是学校运动队的一员。她热爱跑步。但那场灾难打破了她的梦想。她不得不依靠假肢生活。假肢并不舒服,而且她的腿经常流血。人们好奇的目光让她更加不自在。她总是试图把腿藏在牛仔裤或裙子下面。
在家人和朋友的支持下,牛钰慢慢从阴影中走了出来。2018年,就在她21岁生日前夕,她决定不再隐藏自己的腿。令她惊讶的是,她收到了很多鼓励的话语。她还在大约4小时内完成了一场半程马拉松。她完成了重新找回自我的艰难的10年历程。
牛钰在社交媒体上分享了她的经历。她与灾难幸存者交谈,并鼓励他们向前看。2023年,她在世界大学生运动会上传递了火炬。“这对我来说是一种极大的荣誉,”她说。“但这也是一个向人们展示勇敢的力量的好机会。”
一场灾难会带来伤痛。但我们应该始终勇敢地面对它们。正如作家诺拉·艾芙隆曾经说过的:“最重要的是,做你生命中的英雄,而不是受害者。”
