Wedding bands on the 4th finger.

I came across this in a email this morning.. and it immediately remind me of this verse.

No human being must sepatate, then, what God has joined together. ~Mark 10:9~

1. Put your fingers as shown on the picture.

2. Try to separate your thumbs. Thumb represent parent, they will leave you someday, hence the thumbs can separated.

3. Close your thumbs and try to separate your index fingers. Index fingers represent siblings, they will leave you someday when they have their own family, hence index fingers can separated.

4. Close your index fingers and try to separate your little fingers. Little fingers represent children, they will leave you someday when they have grown up, hence little fingers can separated.

5. Now close your little fingers and try to separate your fourth fingers. You will realize that you cannot separate the, because they represent the marriage of husband and wife.

Then how about middle finger? Well, in palmistry, thumb represent parents, index finger represent siblings, middle finger represent yourself, fourth finger represent spouse and last finger represent children.

Not that I believe palmistry but I'm just thinking that when God created us, mankind, He created us this way and it's almost impossible for us to separate our 4th fingers and it's just like a "mother nature" thingy which cannot be explained. So doesn't it make the vows that the married couples take even more "unbreakable"?

No matter is it palmistry or what, it's also another romantic thought (in addition to the ever famous that, there is a vein that runs from our 4th finger straight to the heart) that by such a simple gesture, it magnifest the vows that we took.
