Road not taken.

Have you ever wondered whether the road you are taking now IS the road? Or have you ever wondered what will happen if you take other roads instead of the road you are currently in? Well if that’s the case, then you have come to the right place.

No doubt, most of us will give this issue a hard thought at least once in our lives regardless in the past, present on in the future. Let’s take a look at “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost below:

"The Road Not Taken":

"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

"And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."

Most of us has and had heard of this poem before and this poem has been used in many schools as one of the literary texts for students to ponder upon. We have been exposed to this issue since young and yet there are many of us who choose the wrong road (gangsters, drug addicts… you get the idea). But this issue is very abstract. I mean what if the road they are taking such as the examples above IS the road????

As we move on in life we will then realize that there is no right or wrong roads. ( I don’t know what I’m babbling haha) once you have taken that path, there is no turning back. If there is, it will be a hard long U-turn. I’m not saying it’s impossible but it’s hard.

Hmmm I can’t seem to make a point, but whatever, I’m just trying to post something up :P
Anyway till here then!
