A Poem 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.

The reason why I love this poem and why it is my favorite, is because it reminds me of my life and how "I have taken the road less traveled by". The reason why I find myself "taking the road less traveled by" is because I have not done the same things that my family has done and not what my friends have done. I do things on my own, even if people think I shouldn't I do anyway. People think that I should not do photography because I would not go far in life, well guess what I'm doing pretty damn good so far. People say I shouldn't speak my mind or it would get me in trouble, I don't care this is my life I'm going to speak my mind and if you don't like it then don't listen. People may not like me because of the decisions that I have chosen in my life, but guess what its my life not yours and I know that some of you have my best interest in mind but this is how I am. And the reason why is because I have taken the road less traveled by.
