The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, 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 doubthed 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

Ini satu lagi karya sastra lama yang saya suka, ketika berada di semester 4 fakultas keguruan dan ilmu pendidikan jurusan English Education, ada mata kuliah literature. Selain belajar tentang karya-karya sastra Inggris kun0, tapi juga mempelajari tentang sejarah dari negara itu sendiri. I love this subject..

Hal yang aku sukai dari puisi ini adalah si penulis yaitu Robert Frost, ingin menggambarkan bahwa life is always about choice. kita harus memilih jalan kita sendiri, not choose what people said that the right way for us, but we should choose the best way that make us happy
..


aku adalah orang percaya bahwa tuhan menciptakan takdir kita masing-masing, namun takdir itu pun terjadi atas persetujuan diri kita sendiri. kita yang memilih dan menentukan setiap hal dalam hidup ini, dan tuhan yang menyetujui.
