i pause a while.....

Life is full of choices. And it challenges us to choose what we think is the best. I always pause a while after going through "The Road Not Taken" with my class. Though weak in the language but this poem always manage to open up the minds of my students. Their non-ending thoughts and questions provoke my own inner thoughts and feelings; and I'll reflect on various aspects in my own life....sometimes making connections to the poem. Satisfied with what I've chosen? Happy? Regret? Sorry? Angry? Envy? Hmmm, so the list would go on but at the end of the day what would really matter is the coming days and how I would make them part of me. . . .
