The roads in our life



We have to make a lot of decisions in our life...
It can be something as small as deciding what to eat for lunch, where to hangout on the weekend...
Or it can be something important like whether you should take a particular course, what type of job you should look for, when should you get married....

We are making more and more decision as time goes by...
There are times we wish that some of the decisions that we have made can be changed but we can't...
Sometimes we still try to change certain things that have been done although we know that there is almost nothing that we can do about it...
We will never be able to change the past, the only thing we can do is to learn from the decisions we have made...

Here is a more original version of "The Road Not Taken", you may want to watch it or you may not want to watch it... Haha... And the paragraphs below it is the full text of the poem...


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.
