After creating this thread last summer, I began to wonder if I was naturally left-handed and started working on my skills with using my left hand. I can now write more legibly with my left hand than many people can with their dominant hand; I can do my makeup with my left hand (when I did one side with my left hand and one side with my right, my boyfriend couldn’t tell the difference); and I can use a knife with my left hand.
This year, I’ve been thinking about being more regimented with developing these skills, and actually practicing writing individual letters with my hand the way a Kindergartener might practice their handwriting. I was in a long meeting yesterday and wrote out rows of each letter of the alphabet in the notebook I brought along.
