The Road Not Taken

Salam wbt and a very good afternoon dear readers!

Today, let me share with you another poem that I really adore. It's a rather short poem, I would say. But it has a profound meaning for all of us to ponder upon. 

Life is full of choices, so we must choose them carefully and wisely. May Allah guide us to the right path.

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.
