I took this photo in Colorado, very close to Southpark, using my Canon Rebel. It reminded me of the poem by Robert Frost.
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 traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
It seems as though the writer regrets not taking the well traveled road.
In Matthew 8:13,14 Jesus says "Enter thru the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction and many are those who find it. (vs 14) But the gate is narrow and the way is straight that leads away to life and few are those who find it."
I think I'll choose the road less traveled, how about you? ;)
Keep on Steeming! =)
