And that has made all the difference

If you're wondering where I got my inspiration for the blog title from, here's some Frost for you, since most of you (except maybe for a few others), do not know that Frost is actually one of my favourite poet(others being Wordsworth, Kipling and Dylan Thomas).

The Road Not Taken
by Robert Frost

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 travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.


A few hours from my departure to Mizzou, a sense of anticipation? Not really. More like apprehension. Maybe when I get there then the excitement will follow. But like Miss Lee Hoon proclaimed on Monday, Murphy is not my friend. So hopefully but choosing to take the road less travelled by, it would make all the difference to me.
