The Left Hand Turn

Throughout history, the Left Hand has signified evil. Being left-handed branded you as a servant of the Devil during the Middle Ages. The reason I know that little piece of trivia is that I am left-handed. It was quite a shock to find out history does not reward you for being left-handed....along with Sister Mary Silvester, my Fifth grade teacher who gave me a "C" in penmanship.

Connotations aside however, I've always liked making left hand turns. Going against the traffic, the stress of backing up the traffic behind you. Doing something that goes against the flow.

Right now, I am circling around a left hand turn in employment. Could I actually work for myself and make a living of it? How do you start? How do you know when you are doing it right? How do you cover expenses when you're out of work and don't qualify for a small business loan?

Is it the right thing to do....or maybe the "left" thing to do....
