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 marked 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-

In life, there were times that we had to make a decision, a choice...

And we were not certain of any, yet we chose.

Sometimes we made the right decision, sometimes we made mistakes.

I have made mistakes... a lot of it.

Do I have any regrets of making it? Hmmm, sometimes I do.

Would've... could've... should've...

But didn't.

Yes I have lived with few major regrets, but I am proud that I am still able to stand up

And now I tried not to have regrets in life, tried to live my life to the fullest, 

and I tried and I tried and I tried...

Somehow along the course of life, you learn about yourself
& realize there should never be regrets–
only a lifelong appreciation of the choices you’ve made

There are moments which mark your life. 

Moments when you realize nothing will ever be the same, 

and time is divided into two parts: before this, and after this.
Sometimes you can feel such a moment coming. That is the test. 

At times like that, strong people keep moving forward anyway, no matter what they’re going to find.

I wanted a perfect ending. 

Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, and end. 

Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next.

In three words, I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life.

 It goes on.
