This one's for a Friend!

I have been a kinda busy with my business and was out traveling. Missed out on regular posting, but will be back with renewed vigor from this weekend onwards. A good friend and a fellow blogger Sunil Saranjame of Timamo has decided to take a long sabbatical because of some important assignments which demand his immediate attention. SS as he is fondly called has been a great teacher to me. Infact when I had embarked on this journey called trading he had welcomed me with this short poem by Robert frost. Well this post is dedicated to him.

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 doubted 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 travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost
