From one person to a group of people, the blind road is drawn longer and longer …
Recently, a touching love relay was staged on a street in Lishui, Zhejiang. Passers-by stopped one after another, picked up brushes and pigments, and used colors and creativity to revitalize the original monotonous blind road …

The sponsor of the activity is called Fang Cunxin. She is a painting blogger and an optimistic one-armed girl. "When I went out once, I met a blind man who wanted to cross the road. Because the blind road is occupied, I can only accompany the blind man for a while. " Fang Cunxin was deeply surprised by this experience. In the city where she lived for many years, blind people were rarely seen.
This incident prompted her to pay attention to the blind road construction in the city. "Many blind roads are occupied and destroyed by bicycles, and even the colors of many blind roads are dim and almost unnoticed." As a painting lover, Fang Cunxin had an idea, "If passers-by are allowed to leave their own works of art on the blind road, can it arouse everyone’s attention to this’ forgotten corner’?"
After obtaining the approval of the relevant departments, she opened the event with acrylic paint and brushes.

On the first day of painting, Fang Cunxin still needs to shout at the roadside, hoping to attract more passers-by to participate. On the second and third days, hundreds of people have spontaneously joined this street public welfare activity. "At first, I only planned to draw 50 meters, but when I came to my senses, this road has extended far and far." Talking about the scene where everyone actively participated in the activities, Fang Cunxin was very emotional.
"Although they can’t see, we can use this tangible color to pave an invisible road for them. I can keep painting because it is a very meaningful thing. " A girl who participated in painting at the scene squatted at the intersection for several days and created on the ground one by one.

Everyone calls this road "Rainbow Road". As Fang Cunxin said, "I hope this rainbow road will be infinitely extended in our hearts, maybe the color will fade, but love will continue!" From one person to a group of people and then to everyone, strangers pick up brushes. In this way, they contribute to the better integration of disabled people into society.
