Deep meaning, Big Influence.....

The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost

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.


Robert Frost [1916]


My point of view :
Suka betul dengan poem ni. Dulu belajar masa Form 4 rasa macam tak related sangat dengan life.
But at this moment, memang sangat related to my life.
Life is full of choices. We have to make our own decision wisely.
In life there is no one you can blame when you make the wrong choice.
It is you that paints your life in this world.
There is no turning back and even if you wish you could travel both ways it is impossible.
Having choices may test your courage and perseverance and act wisely.
It is in our hands what better life we can offer to ourselves.
No matter what happen, whether we make the right decision or not , let us not be afraid to try.
'A journey of a thousand miles begin with a single step.'
