There is a beautiful and convincing explanation given by theChinese Legend...
Thumb represents your Parents Second (Index) finger represents your Siblings Middle finger represents your-Self Fourth (Ring) finger represents your Life Partner & the Last (Little) finger represents your children
Firstly, open your palms (face to face), bend the middlefingers and hold them together - back to back Secondly, open and hold the remaining three fingers and thethumb - tip to tip (As shown in the figure below):
Now, try to separate your thumbs (representing the parents)...,they will open, because your parents are not destined to live with youlifelong, and have to leave you sooner or later. Please join your thumbs as before and separate your Indexfingers (representing siblings)... ., they will also open, because yourbrothers and sisters will have their own families and will have to leadtheir own separate lives.
Now join the Index fingers and separate your Little fingers(representing your children)... ., they will open too, because thechildren also will get married and settle down on their own some day.
Finally, join your Little fingers, and try to separate yourRing fingers (representing your spouse). You will be surprised to see that you just CANNOT....., becauseHusband & Wife have to remain together all their lives - through thickand thin!!
Please try this out......... .... ISN'T THIS A LOVELY THEORY?
