The Road Not Taken !

I shall be telling this in SIGH somewhere AGES and AGES hence :
Two Roads diverged in a wood and I-I Took the one LESS TRAVELED BY,  and that had made all the DIFFERENCE !
Life is a Journey each one of us take. 




Today iam going to explain one of the misunderstood poem - "The Road Not Taken" composed by an Influential Poet by name Robert Frost.

Robert Frost was an American Poet !




This poem is a Metaphor in our lifeline and all the crisis we encounter in life. 
Every now and then we encounter with CROSS ROADS where we need to make a CHOICE !

The 2 cross roads of life :

1. The first Road that is most traveled by Symbolizes - DEAD HABIT ; Our perception that CHANGE is a FAILURE and sticking to the same old dead habit. The fixed mindset is something which most of the people have been conditioned to think from an early age. Such people see change as a failure and want to avoid change at any cost. They are very likely to take the ROAD MOST TRAVELED BY.

2. The other Road is THE ROAD NOT TAKEN (the road less traveled) Symbolizes - FREEDOM/FREEWILL. People who are creative take the road less traveled by. However such people are never RECOGNIZED AND APPRECIATED.
Throughout the Journey the traveler is ALONE.




The Poem : The Road Not Taken. 




I MADE A CHOICE TO TAKE A CHANCE !
I decided to take the CHANCE and leap into the UNKNOWN !
I chose THE ROAD NOT TAKEN.




I want to share my experience on the ROAD NOT TAKEN :

When i started my Journey ; Those with fixed mindset who want to maintain the impression of being INTELLIGENT ; the one who want to avoid putting themselves in situations where they may think that they may not succeed made FUN OF ME for taking this Road.
Some women despite of knowing the truth did not give any evidence ; they felt maintaining silence is the only way to survive in the corporate world.
Such people perceive CHANGE AS A FAILURE. 
They fear CHANGE.

This is the song which i want to dedicate to each one of you who are suffering from DEAD HABITS. DEAD HABITS = FIXED MINDSET.

A song composed by Rabindranath Tagore.




I CONTINUED my journey on the ROAD NOT TAKEN !
In the middle of the Road ; I understood that the LOW CONSCIOUS have understood their mistake. However if they accept their mistake they have to change ; if they accept change people will Judge them as a FAILURE. 
They decided to put all their efforts in proving that their IGNORANCE is the REALITY.
Such people perceive CHANGE AS A FAILURE.

Iam a NON-CONFORMIST who always choose the path less taken.
Most People have already Judged me as a FAILURE for choosing the ROAD NOT TAKEN.
For me SUCCESS meant ARRIVING AT THE END OF THE ROAD NOT TAKEN !

It is not easy to leave the place of familiarity ; however new society has to be formed.
For me FINISHING and ARRIVING at the End of the ROAD NOT TAKEN is SUCCESS !

Hey LOOK....I already have so many following me !  Iam referring to each one of you !
This Road is now NO LONGER A LESS TRAVELED ROAD ! 
Therefore the ROAD NOT TAKEN can be seen as an UNFULFILLED DREAM of others.

Iam not sure what will happen at the end of the Journey !
But all that i know is that - I will once again encounter with 2 cross roads !
Once again if i chose the Road Not Taken !








Remember if Mahatma Gandhi  and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose had fixed mindset and dead habits ; then India would not have won FREEDOM !
A song from Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose - The Forgotten Hero !
This can help your soul experience FREEDOM !
