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.
This poem is all about making choices in life, choices are very important it's a life changing decision and impossible to turn back after making a choice. In this poem the author chooses to go down the less travelled road instead of going down the more popular road that is easier, in life this is very common people like to take the easier way out or be a follower instead of being a leader. He made his own path and had no regrets, in life people try to fit in instead of being there own individual, later on in life people will respect you more if you are your own individual.
