I love being left-handed. Always knew it was a unique, special thing, to be a lefty. My son is on the spectrum and is also left-handed. He is so sharp and epitomizes left-handedness. I do anything everything left-handed, except move a computer mouse and cut with scissors…had to learn that righty, I had no choice! Fun tidbit about me….my, “pet peeve”, is a left-hander, who wears their watch on their left hand. Embrace it lefties, where it on the right!!!! ?
