… The only people that interest me are the Mad ones,
The ones who are Mad to Live,
Mad to Talk,
Mad to be Saved,
And desirous of everything at the same time,
The ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing……
But burn, burn, burn….
Burn like fabulous roman candles across the night,
Exploding like spiders across the stars……..( On the Road, JK)
From Jack Kerouac`s famous ''On the Road'' , the book of the journey and discovery.
Life is a journey, with many roads diverging, I often find myself at the forking of two or more roads, at the same time. So far, no regrets and complete satisfaction with my choices:)
But very often I go for the road less travelled by...(reference to Robert Frost)Which often makes the difference. Has not always been easy as well..
I love life.. and people..
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 feet 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''
