Road Less Traveled Make A Decision

Everyone is a traveler, carefully choosing which
roads to follow on the map of life. There is never
a straight path that leaves one with but a single
direction in which to head. Robert Frost s The
Road Not Taken can be interpreted in many
different ways. The shade of light in which the
reader sees the poem depends upon her past,
present, and the attitude with which she looks
toward her future. In any case however, this poem
clearly demonstrates Frost s belief that it is the

in the end he still ends up happy. That shows that
