I think the reasoning behind his writing of this poem was because in life, you have many obstacles to overcome and many choices and decisions to make, which opens a path that leads the way to your future.

what you are because of the conscious and subconscious choices you have made.” -Barbara Hall, A Summons to New Orleans, 2000 I personally agree with the writer Jon Spayde on all the aspects he has mentioned in this paper. The writer has discoursed various facets regarding the importance of alternatives in one’s life. But, a very significant point mentioned in this article is, that when a certain individual is in a position to make his own choices or take his own decisions he must keep in mind that he

“Choice. He has no real choice does he? Self-interest, fear of physical pain, drove him to that grotesque act of self-abasement. Its insincerity was clearly to be seen. He ceases to be a wrongdoer.

The main focus of this book is the discussion of free will in society, however touches upon several other ideas in such as brutality, immaturity in youth, and morale choices. As well as how

about something he had done before. Even though what he did wasn’t looked as being good or bad, it was indicated the decision he made had an outcome that caused a shift in his life. “The Road Not Taken” is a poem about how it is important to make a choice in life. In the beginning of the poem, the man is hating that he had to be stuck with the road he chose instead of being able to take both paths.

It’s what you do after you’ve made the mistake that makes all the difference.” ~Dave Willis I used to believe that every person’s life was a reflection on the choices they made. I believed that the lack of positive outcome in a person’s life was a result of their negligence, poor planning, or irresponsibility. I was under the misconception that when people choose the wrong path in the life-altering fork in

I would teach you right from wrong…”’(Hughes 15) It’s obvious in this paragraph that Mrs. Jones wants to be a role model for Roger and she influences Roger to make better choices later in the text. Next, in “Doing the Right Thing” four football players enter an unlocked, closed store in New Jersey. They needed to purchase some items when they realized no employees were there in the store.

Because it is autumn, leaves are changing colors. Therefore, things in the speaker’s life will or are going to change based on the path he takes. Lastly, the repetition of the first line “Two roads diverged in a wood…” used in the last stanza concludes the poem by enouncing the speaker made choices and it has changed his life yet he

Vanishree Gandhi Godard’s Breathless 4. In a world where there are no ultimate reasons for action, how does Michel find freedom to act and to live creatively? Why does Patricia, who shares Michel’s nihilistic world-view, draw the opposite conclusion from it? Why is she only capable of negative freedom expressed as independence in the course of the film? In the movie Breathless, written and produced by Jean-Luc Godard, is a French film about a thief named Michel Poiccard, who spends his time in Paris

This poem has a calm and collective narration and is spoken by the traveler, who is talking with himself trying to decide which road is the better choice. In the introductory line, Frost introduces the diverging roads, which are his main metaphors because it suggests that the traveler must make a decision. “And sorry I could not travel both”(Frost,Robert.) reveals the traveler’s grief of not being
