Reading hands

So this is my left hand, exiting isn’t it…

Well I didn’t take the picture just for nothing. It was for (1) to have something other than text and (2) to write about something my mom sometimes talks about. You probably understand my first motive, but perhaps the second one needs a bit elaboration. 

I wonder if there are many people who believe in reading hands (or rather, the lines on your hand).  My mother somewhat believes in it. She would sometimes ask me to show her my hand and tell me what kind of person I am, based on those curves. The subjects would be:  career, health or my personal characteristics (and probably many more). And if I had to believe my mother’s hand reading skills, I won’t have that much of a career before my 30th birthday. (or even after I’m 30 for that matters). To me it seems a bit weird that some lines (which I used to believe that they were quite similar for everyone) can predict/define your future… 

Though there is another aspect that has caught my attention. See where the two lines merge together and stay merged for quite a while/length? That’s somewhat a ‘problem’. You see, that merging of the two lines seems to tell something about my personality: my indecisiveness. When those lines go together it somehow indicates that the person can’t decide and struggles against alternatives (or so I have been told). Turns out this is quite true, with regards to myself. 

I really am an indecisive person, and as the length of the combined part suggests, I’m one hell of an indecisive guy. Sometimes I decide to do a certain thing, only to change my decisions some time later (this could be days, hours, minutes…). That change in decision would mostly soon be followed by doubt rising in me, resulting in yet another change (either back to the original or to something new). Usually I keep choosing between three or four alternatives and every time I change my thoughts, uncertainty rises as I doubt whether I made the right choice. 

For example: during the exams I had to pick a way of studying my material (I think it was philosophy which I was trying to cram in my head). Philosophy is a typical ‘theory’ course, in that it has much text that you have to understand (or in my case: learn by heart) and less exercises which you have to do. What I usually do with theory courses, is I make a summary of the material and just learn that. So I did that. After about 5 lines I realized it would consume a lot of time and I stopped summarizing. Then I thought I’d just read through it and wrote down only the important keywords and ‘filing’ those. That lasted for about one page. I wondered if it wouldn’t be better after all to just summarize it. I remembered the time consuming fact and stepped of that idea. Then the silly thought came to me: “hey, I’m actually quite good at remembering by heart, and if I file things, it will go even better!” So I tried not writing anything down and just read and tried to remember the material as I read. I quickly fell asleep. And again, I considered a different studying method… This process has repeated itself some times (over some days) and somehow I found a method to study the stuff (which I don’t remember anymore).

Anyways, it shows that I am quite an indecisive person (regarding a lot of stuff, not only studying) and this is well reflected in the lines on my hand. So I do tend to believe this hand reading stuff to some extent. 

Though I still refuse to believe that anyones future is already determined by some mere lines on ones hand. It really isn’t good to let such a thing influence yourself, the things you do, etc…

So what do you think of reading hands? Anyone out there indecisive as me? Or does anyone have those nicely intertwined lines like I do?
