  • on The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost, on May 18, 2006

    Great, but misunderstood

    When I read this i dont think that i get the same message that most people get about having the courage to go against the social norm.
    to me this poem is more about a retrospective account of the impacts that any one choice can make on a persons life. Not necessarily for good or bad, though Frost doesnt seem to happy about the results from the path taken, but an extrapolation on the inevitability of fate and a fatalistic look at how one can never know where a particular path may lead and all one can do is do what seems best at the time and hope.
