My favourite poem of all time

Sorry for the lack of posts on this blog, I'm actually suprised that I have a few readers! Thank you so much for following. I want this blog to document my life beyond fashion, style and beauty. Don't get me wrong, a massive part of my life is hopelessy devoted to fashion especially, but there are so many different sides to me that this blog will explore. I do hope you enjoy reading about my crazy, spontaneous, ambitious and often diva-like life! 
I just thought I'd share with you my favourite poem of all time, for some reason it makes me teary and very reflective but I do LOVE it.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel 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 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 traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
