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.

Chas made me do it. Thanks, bud!

Guess I'll give it another shot. After all, a man needs his friends.

Yes he does, and they don't always have to live next door. Glad to hear from you. Hope you and your family are doing well.

My wife and son are fine, Chas. Thanks for asking.

I'll be going back to Laos this month. It'll be great to see Monk Noy and the other monks again.

Good to see you Taike...

Your voice is a much enjoyed one in our chorus, sing loud, ok?

"A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends." I guess it's a Ralph Waldo Emerson quote.

Thanks, Bill.

Hi!! you old rogue,
Glad you have repented, and "MODERATED your aggressive attitude". It does not become you to be absent from this forum. There are many who will/should learn from the wisdom of your contributions. Stay calm and stay in control!!

Aggressive? Moi? Nah, I wouldn't call myself aggressive. Repented? What for? Let's just say that I believe that there are three sides to a coin.

.....and you'd be correct.

My friend Taike get's the "Zone" renaissance man award of the year for sure.

Besides, his family has adopted me!

That's COOL and much appreciated!
