LEFT LEFTIST LEFTY



~ LEFT     THE SIDE OF THE BODY TOWARD THE SUNSET WHEN
           FACING THE SOUTH   
           also THE SIDE CONTAINING THE HUMAN HEART
           for contrast note that LEFT is opp to RIGHT
           in regards to
           STRAIGHT or ERECT
           LAW  CANON  RULE or RIGHTS
           LAW  JUSTICE
           DIRECT  STRAIGHT
           AGREEABLE  SATISFYING  PROPER  FITTING
           hx> THE GREEKS NAME THE LEFT HAND AS " BESTER " and the
               LEFT SIDE AS "THE SIDE OF GOOD OMEN"
           note MOST ANCIENT PRIESTS PERFORMED SACRIFICES
                FACING SOUTH TOWARD THE RISING SUN or EAST or
           EMERGING LIGHT

                            LEVITATE BREAD         sug> ELEVATE
           the above ideas relate to BENEFICENT SACRED POWER
           note that LEFT ALSO CAN IMPLY A SLUR as in
                LEFT or ABANDONED 
                LEFT or LEFTOVER or WORTHLESS  
           THE LEFT HAND IS MOST OFTEN WEAKER AND CLUMSIER and
           LEFT HANDED PERSONS ARE IN THE MINORITY  see> LEFTY 
           in Greek terminology THE LEFT SIDE WAS THE SHIELD SIDE
                                THE RIGHT SIDE WAS THE SPEAR SIDE
           negative connotations of LEFT are found
           in political labels such as LEFTIST or LEFT WING
           also note AN INCA RULER LLOQUE YUPANQUI = LEFTHANDED or
           "ONE WHO WILL BE RENOWNED FOR PIOUS ACTIONS"
           showing that often LEFT HANDEDNESS WAS TAKEN AS A SIGN

                 LEFT TO RIGHT" or in skt DAKSH or lat DEXTER
           implying DEXTERITY or DEXTROUS denoting
           FORTUNATE or TOWARD THE RIGHT
           note a relationship with the DAILY TRANSIT OF THE
           SUN FROM EAST or LEFT TOWARD THE WEST or RIGHT
           biol> THE LINKS BETWEEN PHILOLOGY  BIOLOGY AND NATURAL
                 HISTORY IN REGARDS TO LEFT AND ITS RELATION TO
           MAGIC or RELIGION PROFOUNDLY COLOR ITS ETYMOLOGY  
           NOTE THAT PERHAPS WE ARE NATURALLY INCLINED TO USE THE
           HAND MOTION FROM RIGHT TO LEFT AS DO THOSE CULTURES WHO
           WRITE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT BECAUSE INVARIABLY MOST PEOPLE
           REGARDLESS OF THEIR HANDEDNESS  WHEN SHADING WITH A
           PENCIL WILL DO SO WITH MOTIONS FROM RIGHT TOWARD THE LEFT
           note HOW WE EMBRACE or how THE RIGHT HAND WILL SWEEP
                TOWARD THE LEFT
           note DURING AN EMBRACE FACIAL CHEEKS TEND TO
                FAVOR RIGHT TO RIGHT CONTACT        sug> COITUS

           ANARCHISTS and COMMUNIST  MARXISTS

  ABOUT 15% OF YOUNG ADULTS ARE LEFT HANDED BUT THE PROPORTION
  DROPS WITH AGING  IN SOME ESTIMATES TO AS LOW AS 1% AMONG
  OCTOGENARIANS  THE ABOVE FACTS ARGUE THAT LEFT HANDEDNESS
  MAY REFLECTS BRAIN ABNORMALITIES AND MAY POSE RISKS
  also AMONG RIGHT HANDED PERSONS  97% ARE LEFT BRAIN DOMINANT
  FOR LANGUAGE in contrast to LESS THAN 20% OF LEFT HANDED WHO
  ARE RIGHT BRAIN DOMINANT FOR LANGUAGE
  THE ABOVE IMPLIES DIFFERENCES IN BRAIN ORGANIZATION
  PERHAPS THIS MAY EXPLAIN WHY AMONG THE LEARNING DISABLED
  LEFTIES ARE MORE COMMON  AS ARE THE AMBIDEXTROUS or
  THOSE LACKING BRAIN DOMINANCE
  SOME PROPOSE THAT MILD BRAIN DAMAGE INCREASES THE CHANCE
  FOR NON DEXTERITY THUS INCREASING THE CHANCES FOR LEFT HANDEDNESS
