This path I’m laying at home looks a bit queer.  "

Spin the spirit level around 180 to make sure. Sometimes there is adhesive or cement on the spirit level. 
But my first instinct is that other things are not level. Fence posts can be out, house walls can be off when built or subside over time, trees lean(nature is wonky). Sometimes, because of these things, you need to be imperfect to make it look perfect.  |

If you can still walk along it when slightly tipsy and not get pushed off the path by that imaginary person that appears when you are d*unk, then the path is fine!!
I suggest you test out that theory and see how you get on  |
