The road not taken

• 'Two roads diverged in a wood' - the speaker comes across two paths that have been

  created by nature
• 'And sorry I could not travel both' - the speaker wishes to take both paths but cannot as

  they are separate from one another
• The theme of personal decisions and a risk that comes with it is explored in the road not

  taken. the poem acknowledged the possibility of regret in making decision it also

  conveyed a sense of hope in the notion that each choice opens up new possibilities. The

  line" I took the one less travelled by and that has made all the difference". I think this

  conveys that being unique and not reflecting the majority leads to opportunities and that

  we shouldn't be frightened to be different and that Being distinctive does not always

  result in failure.
• This offers hope to readers who have an idea that isn't common and want to establish it

  but are afraid of failing.
• The road not taken addresses the subject of decisions and how they affect a persons life the speaker thinks back to a scene in the woods where they have to choose between two paths and have to make a decision
