Right and left

Once there was a student whose soul was as bright as a daffodil bulb. When she entered a room, hearts quickened:
I have an idea, she said, That will set the world alight.
Should I do it?
Her teacher replied:
“What is the difference between
Your right and your left?”
Who knows, said the pupil.
“Then do what you feel is right
Not what you think others think is right
Or when time moves, you will be left.”
O really!, said the student
Now I don’t know whether to be confused or not!
“Stop asking permission!”, retorted the teacher
“Your soul is a universe
You, merely a planet.”
