#60 Appreciation: Exploration

Talking about exploration, is more than physical challenge but also psychologically and emotionally.

I am ambitious, sometimes my mum said that I am overly ambitious. Well, the fault is not solely on me, but 'life' too! Because we only live once, and I dont want to regret or keep wondering how will I be if I chosen the other path.

I always love the poem by Robert Frost "The Road Not Taken". Even though we can only chose one road, but there is no harm to peek and explore for a short distance if time and resources allow. At least after we get the feel of it, then we can make a better choice.  Exploration, is just another act that made me appreciate my life more =)

The Road Not Taken

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.
