Life is tough: Armless calligraphist in Shenzhen, China

Losing both arms in an occupational accident, this man becomes a calligraphist- holding a brush with his mouth in order to earn a living.
This is what lack of social security or social welfare really means.
Life is not a joke. It's a struggle. It's a thorny path out of our imaginations.

Imagine that one day you lose your arms, what will you do?
