“Left” of something means literally the opposite of what you want it to, if the person you’re speaking to is on the other side of what you’re looking at. Your left is his or her right. It’s easier to say north, south, east or west, or reference another landmark, such as closer to the ocean, or sunset, because then it doesn’t matter what direction one is facing while giving directions.” — Richard Heart
