I never dreamt of seeking fame or fortune. I never dreamt of my success or failure. When two roads diverged, then, and only then, did I decide which path to follow. I look back sometimes and wonder, “what if I had chosen the other?”
The road has been rocky and steep at times, but I am happy and thankful for what I have become, the people I have met and for family. There will be more paths to choose and bridges to cross in this life. And, as I look back, I wonder, “What if I had only dreamt?”
A beautiful expression of gratitude and wisdom!

Brilliant! This reminds me of a poem we had this year for AP Lit. ‘The Road Not Taken’.
Perhaps, you’ve read it? If not, do read it, it’s marvellous!

Thank you! My husband recites lines from that poem all the time. Robert Frost was a beautiful poet.
