The Road Not Taken

---

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one travel, long I stood
And looked down on 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 onto 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 differences.
Robert Frost [1916]

Robert Frost is one of my favorite poets. "The road not taken " is one of the poems that I use to guide my way of living. It indicates that nothing is too late to start again. The mistakes do not mean the dead of our life. We can start to accomplish it again and again as the same as the favorite quote of American: " Today is the first day of the rest of our life ". Although we do a lot of mistakes in our life, it doesn't matter. We can go to sleep and forget it, then wake up in morning and solve the mistakes. Don't give up with every problem as long as we can survive. Everything can start again and change to be better .
