A story by Tater
A young student approached the Master with his observation about how he was very accurate with one hand, but not strong whereas his other hand was strong, not accurate.
"You see," said the Master, "we are usually dominant with one hand or the other and some people are slightly split with their talents like yourself. As we learn our arts we try to even out our skills so that we have a little of the knife in both hands and a little of the hammer in both hands. At some point in your future, after you've practiced enough, you'll be as good with both hands as you are one side now."
The student thought about this as he picked his nose industriously.
"Or maybe not in your case," said the Master.
"Hunh?" said the student.
Sigh he sighed. "I rest my case."
