Being Right-handed With A Left-handed Brain
I began my life as a left-hander. I was encouraged (I won't say "forced" because I have enough to be pissed off at The Mother about) to use my right hand so as not to be "different." The trouble is, I still think left-handed in many ways. When we played baseball as children, I found it just as easy to bat left-handed as right. Whenever I pick up a guitar (I don't play), it seems more comfortable to hold it as a lefty than as a right-hander. Whenever I do any hand sewing, I seem to sew in the direction of a lefty. I am slightly ambidextrous and know I could be much better if I practiced, but I really have not had the need till now. Just another slightly interesting fact about me. :)

I think this may be one of the best descriptions of love/marriage I have ever seen. Funny, but true! :D
Didn't know that about you! I've heard of parents doing that. You said you have not had the need to be ambidextrous until now. What's up?
ReplyDeleteI would love to be left-handed. Being different is AWESOMENESS!! I think left-handedly now and then, too, tho I've never been left-handed.
ReplyDeleteJust re-read the post and I cannot figure out WHAT I was thinking! It definitely sounds as if I NEED to be left-handed for a reason--nothing is further from the truth! Sorry for the misunderstanding! :)
