1) Left-handed people tend to be more creative and imaginative than right-handed people. This would explain why Michelangelo and Leonardo DaVinci were left-handed.
2) Only about ten percent of people are left-handed, so that makes us unique.
3) If you play baseball, being left-handed is a great thing.
4) Left-handed people tend to feel more and think less. This makes for a very interesting life.
5) There are usually more left-handed people in show business than right handed people.
No matter what the reason, it is great to be left handed. Sure we have to work a little harder to learn to write, cut with scissors, and, let's face it, just about anything because we live in a mostly right-handed society. All throughout history, there were many well known people who were left handed. Whether they were artists or presidents, people thought they were strange for being left handed. You may get a lot of attention for being left handed, but who says that is a bad thing. Think of being left-handed as a way to stand out from the crowd. It is also a great conversation starter. I don't know how many times someone has stopped me in the middle of a post office or the check out line in a supermarket because they saw me writing something left-handed. Whether or not you think so, being left handed is great!

Post a CommentIam a leftie and i feel proud of it since people fancy my writing and besidedes iam a good caligraphy writter.i thnk God for that
I'm a leftie and every teacher I've ever had tried bringing me down or flunking me because they said my writing skills were pretty slow. However all my parents noticed (plus defended me with) was that I had some pretty sloppy writing when I was little. That didn't stop me from keeping up with anything we were doing though (and acing it). I'm only wishing I had this article to wave in their faces back then~
I am 16,I am a lefty, and I love it, being left handed, I am always looking up which one of my fav famous people are left handed..and it turns out that Paul Mccartney, Kurt Cobain, Gandhi and Keanu Reeves are lefties :)
It feels great to stand out in the crowd, people sometimes ask me why I wear my watch on my right hand, haha.

Being a left-hander is awesome. It's so cool to be a part of a minority.
I am one of the 10 percent. Thanks for the encouragement!
