“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I —
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
Today, I honor Robert Lee Frost, the poet who endorsed free thinking and a “forge your own path” philosophy for life in his poem The Road Not Taken. Or did he? A stanza or two, like any conversation, can easily be taken out of context–as literary scholars say it was in the lines above. On this 141st day of the poet’s birth, I encourage you to re-read the poet’s poem in its entirety and consider an alternative message or two that Frost may have been delivering. Or just read the poem for your enjoyment.

I reread the poem and really enjoyed. Didn’t wind up getting far in the analysis. I felt so good upon finishing the poem, to analyze was the part of my brain I don’t wish to enter today. Maybe tomorrow. Heading to Toni’s ceramics studio and enjoying the fuzzy place free of analysis.

Oh, yes, Pammy, that analysis requires the use of your left brain, for sure. No fuzziness allowed when reading that stuff!
