Ever wondered
why people wear their wedding bands on the left ring finger?
Wll, the Chinese believed that there is an explanation....and here is why.
Read On....
*****
The THUMB represents your/one's Parents.
The second~INDEX~finger represents your/one's Siblings.
The tall~MIDDLE~finger represents your/one-Self.
The fourth~RING~finger represents you/one's Life Partner.
The last~LITTLE~finger represents your/one's Children.
*****
NOW, here's the trick to know.....
*
First, open your palms, --face-to-face--
then slowly bend the middle fingers,
and hold them together back-to-back.
*
Then, open and hold the three remaining fingers
and thumb~tip-to-tip~
(as shown in the picture).
*
Now....
Try to separate your Thumbs (representing your Parents).
They will open because our Parents are not destined to be with us
our whole life long....
and have to leave us, sooner or later.
*
Now join your Thumbs as before
and try to separate your INDEX fingers
(representing Siblings).
They, too, will open, because your siblings
will eventually marry and have their own families,
and of course, lead their own lives.
*
NOW, join your Index fingers and
try and separate your Little fingers
(representing your Children)
They, too, will open because the Children will
eventually marry and leave the Nest someday.
*
Finally, join your Little Fingers and try this time,
to separate your Ring Fingers....
(representing your Spouse/Partner).
You will be surprised to see that
you just CANNOT do so!
......>>>>>>>
because Husband-and Wife were made to
be together~through thick and thin~
all the days of their lives!
*
Lastly,
I read somewhere that the veins on the LEFT ring finger
is directly connected to one's heart,
hence the choice of people long ago
to wear their wedding rings
on the left, becoz it's nearest the heart!
Romantic, isn't it?
*
But then,......
maybe, when I get married, I'd opt
to wear mine on my THUMB!
Both thumbs, if you please!
