Ring Fingers

came across this on a blog.. just to share :)

Have you ever wonder why do we wear our wedding ring on the 4th finger?

Now, here is a beautiful and convincing explanation given and believed by the Chinese.

• Thumb represents your Parents
• Index finger represents your Siblings
• Middle finger represents yourself
• Ring finger represents your Spouse
• Little finger represents your Children

Firstly, open your palms (face to face), bend the middle fingers and hold them together - back to back. Secondly, open and hold the remaining three fingers and the thumb - tip to tip (as shown in the pic above).

Now, try to separate your Thumbs (representing your parents).
They will open, because your parents are not destined to live with you lifelong and will have to leave you sooner or later.

Next, please join your thumbs as before and separate your Index fingers (representing your siblings).
They will also open, because your brothers and sisters will have their own families and will have to lead their own separate lives.

Then join the Index fingers and separate your Little fingers (representing your children).
They will open too, because your children will also get married and settle down on their own some day.

Finally, join your Little fingers, and try to separate your Ring fingers (representing your spouse). You will be surprised to see that you simply cannot do so!
Because husband and wife have to remain together all their lives, through thick and thin!

awwww... so sweet!!
