Quote of the Day – August 25 2012

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. ”
— Robert Frost

I’m surprised it’s taken me this long to use this quote. In ways it reflects my life more than most. Not that I have actively sought the road less traveled as much as that has been where my footsteps have fallen. Somehow the travelled roads have always felt more constricting. Still in reality each of our roads tho they may cross have only been travelled once and forged each step of the way. Even when we tell ourselves, “ah this is the road of my ancestors” or “I follow in my parent’s footsteps” in reality the different times and circumstances change things. The footprints from the past get washed away either by tides rolling in and out or by the dust of paths crossed.

Funny I have met many people who see choice or free will as being an illusion. From my perspective anytime we complain about lack of choice we are kidding ourselves. There are always choices and we can go anywhere. Oh there tends to be consequences. To use another cliche, the cost of what your life can be is what your life is, almost always a fair trade. Enjoy your road never before traveled and
blessings, G

  1. Namaste G,

    To think or believe that We are limited, is an illusion in the 3d grid of ego. We are all Beings of Light and we can be whoever, wherever we need to be at. Light beings can’t be ‘contained’ and there are no such thing as ‘boundaries’. We are free to soar and experience all that we desire as long as it’s for our soul’s highest purpose.
    Blessings and Happy Weekend to You and Yours,
    Agnes

    1. Everything you say is true — tho few can feel it… so much of what is said and needs to be said to reach people at all levels of existence…
      Blessings, G

  2. No wonder the ancient cross-road was a place of power – which way now? And how do we know which is the “road less traveled” unless we travel it?
