This is something that fits my personality.
I was, growing up and even now, the one who never joined the “popular groups”.
I was always just a little bit on the fringe.
While other kids back in the 80’s were loving Sting (I liked him too) – I was immersed in old movies with Humphrey Bogart.
I didn’t smoke pot, didn’t drink …but had my own “edginess” that I can’t quite describe. It has served me well I think.

I know there are countless of us “edgy non-conformers” here – and this piece is for US!

I’m a huge Robert Frost fan – so I felt his poem “The Road Less Traveled” really fit this piece.

“The Road Less Traveled” by Robert Frost

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 traveled by,
And that has made all the difference
