In mi opinion, what robert Frost tris to express in the the poem "The Road Not Taken" is, in an ironic way, the idea that all our decisions are accidental, the two roads in the forest represent the freedom of choice and the fate, but no mather which one we took we wont know which was it or were will it takes us but we will ponder and try to al least once the road is over tell the tale in a more heroic way either to save face or in a desperate attemp to approve our choices.
| "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 (1874–1963). Mountain Interval. 1920.) |
This reminded me of one of the lasts chapters of futurama,"bender big score" at the end of the movie bender tell his history in front of the whole world claiming to be a hero that just saved everyone while keeping the details that we all know.
Although he is unable to sigh
