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. Robert Frost
Today, my words will be few and the day long. There many things to do when embarking on a road trip. Laundry. Shopping. Packing. Planning. Just a few of the “Must Do’s”. All done with anticipation of embarking on the best trip EVER.
Whatever you do today, plan to go somewhere. Somewhere close or somewhere far. Everyone has something in their home town they’ve never seen. Living in a tourist town, my list of unseen wonders is very long. Check out a museum. Travel to the outskirts of your town. Catch a sunrise. Enjoy a sunset. Change things up. Put a toe on that road less traveled. You just might decide to take a few steps in a different direction!
More tomorrow.
