1. Put your palms together and bend in your middle finger as shown in the picture below. Rest the remaining four fingers on their fingertips.
2. Take note that during this experiment, only one pair of fingertips should be separate at any one time. In this experiment, the middle finger represents yourself.3. Now, separate your thumbs from one another. The thumbs represent our parents. The fact that our thumbs could separate from one another represents that our parents will leave us one day inevitably.
4. Next, join your thumbs together again and separate your second fingers. The second fingers represent our siblings. When our siblings grow up and set up their own families, they too, will leave us one day.
5. Now, join your second fingers together again and separate your little fingers. The little fingers represent our children. When our children will grow up, they will eventually lead their own lives and leave us too.
6. Nonetheless, join your little fingers and try to separate your fourth fingers. You will be surprised that this pair of fingers will not separate. The fourth fingers represent husband and wife. Through thick and thin, your spouse and life partner will always be the one who sticks with you.
It's so touching isn't it?

thats really sweet..
I love this. I tried it and I was very amused. I hope you won't mind if I link this on my blog.
nice share - rather interesting :)
yes.. i found this very sweet too when i first read it.
now then you know? zZzZz.. thats slow..
Actually, the reason why you can't move your fourth finger is because the fourth finger shares a flexor muscles with its adjacent fingers and thus, by bending the 3rd finger, the muscle cannot be utilised to separate the 4th fingers due to the extension.
Nonetheless, the 4th finger is chosen because it is believed that a major vein from the heart is connected to the 4th finger, vena amoris. And so, a ring connected to a finger that is linked importantly to the heart.

thnx for sharing this. really nice thought :)
ZR: yea.. i knew that "4th finger is chosen because it is believed that a major vein from the heart is connected to the 4th finger, vena amoris. And so, a ring connected to a finger that is linked importantly to the heart" and this post was just to do simple interactive experiment to show that.
as for the fourth finger sharing the same flexor muscle as the other fingers, that's some interesting new knowledge for me. thanks for sharing!
