The Road Not Taken....

Start the day by sending my lil sis to Terminal Makmur…
She’s been here since Monday…
Kuantan still in her calm and raining weather…
So unpredictable… it can change in a split second…
But that’s the sign of the Almighty… He the Great…
Currently, my office hours are my leisure hours…
But still I’m doing something else that insyaAllah will be revealing soon…
Just hope everything went well...
So far when my lil sis was in Kuantan, not so much that we can do or go…
Blame the weather of course… ehehehhe…
However, I hope she have a great time here with the company of my wonderful housemate… thanks mate for everything’s… =)
Suddenly I was thinking about Robert Frost’s famous poem, The Road Not Taken…
I love the poem so much… not just in linguistic aspects but also the meaning in every line…
It’s just like you need to read between the lines…
It’s such a wonderful masterpiece and I came to know why actually this poem is among selected poems that we need to covers during English Literature class…
Suddenly, it reminds me of my fabulous and lovely English teachers…
So enjoy the attachment of the poem below besides see every meaning that the author wishes the reader to know…
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.

Robert Frost
