It has been too long since I last sat down to write on my blog site. A lot has happened since that first post. Some good and some bad. It has allowed me to reflect on life, my family and my future. I went through something that I had a very hard time dealing with. It was not my first time dealing with what happened, but it did not make things any easier as well. I can not make any promises but I will try to blog better.
Since my second ectopic pregnancy right before christmas 2009, I have decided to enroll back into school and finish my degree, focus on my beautiful daughter, focus on my cooking, and also focus on my writing. As I sit here reflecting, I am reminded of one of my favorite poems by Robert Frost, The Road Not Taken. My life seems to reflect this poem in so many ways, that I lose count. Since I do not have a delicious recipe to share, or a poem of my own that reflects what is going on right now, I would like to share this one with you. I do not regret anything that has happened in my life. It makes me who I am today, and I am grateful of the less traveled road I chose. I hope everyone has a blessed day and enjoy life to the fullest.
The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not traveled both
And be one traveler, 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 ways lead on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in the wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
