When I was a real little kid, maybe in kindergarten, I wrote with both (either) hands. I don’t think I even knew I was doing it or that it was different. “They”* told me that I couldn’t do that, I had to pick one. I asked what did most people write with and they told me the right hand, so that’s what I went with. I sometimes wonder what would have happened if I picked the left hand or was allowed to continue to use both.

* I think “they” were my father and grandmother, but I don’t know for sure.
