Left from Right, Right from Left, Right and Left from Middle, and All to Uncertainty

     The general perception of left and right seem relatively simple to identify but become less definable as we think more about it. When given the task to identify which is left and which is right, a person can quickly distinguish between the two and the matter isn't thought about much more. But, when you delve into this seemingly apparent system, you can discover how empty it is. (And by empty, I mean lacking any certainty or truth about it.) Let us say that you define yourself as either "left-handed" or "right-handed"--or I suppose ambidextrous in some cases. Now, although you may consider yourself to be a certain handedness, consider this: If you are "right handed", from what physical or theoretical point are you making that distinction? Assuming that a left hand and right hand exist means that a middle point must also exist. For if no middle point existed, then how is it possible that this direction is left and another is right? In addition, not only does that point have to exist, but there also must be a theoretical plane that exists for one to make such a statement. To explain what I am thinking in words is not a simple task, so let me use an example to better illustrate my point. Imagine that you are standing in the middle of a street (that street being the middle point in which I previously referred to). Located on your left is a grocery store, and on your right, a gas station. This would be seen as truth by probably the majority of minds. Now, imagine that you turn around 180 degrees. What is truth now? Well, obviously, one may say that the truth is that now the gas station is on the left and the grocery store is on the right. Now if you simply point your eyes to the sky and see an airplane and a hot air balloon, you can still define which is left and which is right, right? It is strange that one can still determine what is left and right despite these separate examples existing on the same vertical or horizontal plane. To make one last point, now imagine that you are still standing 180 degrees of your original spot, with the gas station being on your left and the grocery store located to your right. As you look a little past the the left of the gas station, you see that a restaurant inhabits the area beside it. Now if I ask you which building is on the left and which is on the right, it may be more difficult to give a definite answer. They may both be on the left, at least from the point in which you are standing, but how can they both be on the left when one is obviously further away than the other? Here is reason why I am writing down the difficulty and abstract nature of something that seemed so simple probably only a couple minutes ago. Because of the amount of concepts that we must integrate into our minds--basically to survive in the world--our brains are constantly oversimplifying ideas that really hold no absolute truth. Just because something may seem one way, absolutely does not mean that it exists that way--taking into account the delusions that our senses and thoughts often cause. The truth of what is left and what is right is always changing. In the regard, there never exists absolute truth on what makes up right and what makes up left. I really hope that you can grasp what I am trying to present here and I appreciate you taking the time to read what I have to say. The importance of this realization and how it impacts your life? I am not sure.
