International Lefthanders Day

Did you know that today is the International Left-handers day?  Well I would like to send out a WOOHOO to all the lefties out there including my twin daughter leftie. On 13th August 1992 International Left-Handers Day was launched, an annual event when left-handers everywhere can celebrate their sinistrality and increase public awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of being left-handed.  It is often celebrated by left vs right sporting matches, left-handed tea parties, as well as left-handed activities where right handed parties are encouraged to try every day objects and tasks that left-handers are subjected to on a daily basis. There are several more ways to celebrate, but I think it is great thing anytime someone else is forced or at least encouraged to walk in another's shoes.  It encourages understanding on many different levels. 

 Actually, I think that left handed people tend to be quite intellectual and very deep people.  Maybe because to a certain extent they see and experience things vastly different than right handed people. 

Below is a link of an interesting article that you too may find rather cool to read.
