As a literature student, my world revolves around poetry, and I live in it. And I have read some of the amazing poetry and was always amazed by how wonderful a poet thinks. Among them, one of my utmost favourites is The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost. I still remember how many perspectives I came up with while listening to it. And here I am sharing one of my perspectives on the same. So basically this poem, as the title suggests, is about two roads where the traveller is confused which to take, the one which is the most travelled by or the one which is left unvisited. From this perspective of mine, I am writing about the road that we don’t take, the choice that is left untouched. I always wonder if I would have taken that road where I would be, and if I would be happy. It’s always about the unseen things that we care more about and wonder about. The choice or the decision I made on that day is what I am living now, but I always wonder if maybe I took that road, where would I be today? How would that road treat me? Would I be able to find a better version of myself on that road or at that choice? I always think that both choices can be right; however, we have to find the courage to choose one and move forward with it. In life, every choice comes with challenges that teach us why we chose that path and even make us question why we didn’t choose the other. We always think that maybe that choice would have opened more roads, and so many things go through our minds. I guess thats the nature of our lives, and the choice we make. We always have to look back and wonder about all the choices and the possible outcomes from them.
