The Road Not Taken
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.

I hope you were as moved as i was!

A Little Motivation

February 23, 2008 at 11:25 pm (Insights) (, )

“WHAT are you waiting for?”, I asked myself. It is 4am in the night, or maybe 4am in the morning, I am really not sure. The time-space continuum is lost on me these days. Happy-sad, Energized-lethargic, Inspired-Demotivated, Love-Hate, Hopeful-dismal, i can feel all emotions at the same time, mixed together in all their fury coming at me like a wave- a tsunami threatening to crush me, and wipe me off.

I never knew getting back on track could be so difficult. Human beings are very conveniently made. Each carries with them a Pandora’s box, a treasure chest of emotions, locked with a lock so fragile that the merest of tempering can unleash its payload. Why is it so easy to go astray, so easy to just quit, so easy to just not try? Why does the sunrise symbolize a new beginning, and why does witnessing a sunset bring about a storm of negativity? What IS it that really holds us back?

After giving it much thought, after watching a few sunrises, a few sunsets, a few fights with my loved ones, a few (ok maybe not a few) mood swings, a few periods of inspired hard work followed by equal times of wasteful sleeping, and a few heated debates, discussions & speculations later, i have found absolutely NOTHING..ZILCh..

A time will come when i will walk this road to self discovery, but now is not that time. So i have decided that whenever these thoughts & questions start playing around in my head/with my head, ill just slap myself and get back to work, because time will NOT wait for me. But in the end of it all, one question still hangs in the air, unanswered and refusing to depart, WHAT am i waiting for? ill get back to you when i have found the answer to this one. Till then adorn your desktops with this ‘little motivation’.
