I am what some people might consider handicapped, but I don't think I am. Here is my dilemma. I was born without fingers on my left hand. I feel kind of weird wearing my engagement and wedding ring on my right hand. I am not worried about what my friends and family think because they know me, but I am a little concerned about what the rest of the world might think. Any suggestions?

- Interests:Serving couples and families to bring peace and harmony to their lives. As a life coach, I work with individuals, couples, and families on issues that get in the way of the marital bliss they envisioned. I co-authored the ebook Conquering Conflict in Blended Families with my husband, and I have a newsletter serving over 2800 blended families around the world. I have coached over 200 stepparents, and my background includes a B.A. in Child Development, a Masters in Social Work, with an emphasis on Marital and Family Therapy, and I earned my "phD" in the trenches as a stepmother to two young women who were 15 and 17 when I enterred their lives. I know what it takes to be successful as a stepparent, and I know what doesn't work in second marriages. When I found out that 2 out of 3 second marriages fail, I launched my website and started writing the newsletter to help stepfamilies beat the odds.

What a remarkable dilemma for you.
And what a blessing that you have fingers on your right hand on which to wear your rings.
Here's my question for you -- to what degree do you put stock into what the rest of the world might think about you? I'm curious about how much that thought shows up for you and what decisions you make in life as a result.
My sense is that you have a whole lot you can teach the rest of the world about compassion, love, and connection -- that has nothing to do with how many fingers we have or where we wear our rings -- and has everything to do with what's in our hearts.
Here's my thinking -- if someone out there has a judgment about your rings being worn on your right hand, then, you know that that someone is not someone to invest any time or energy into. They aren't worth it.
Many blessings to you!
