...The Road Not Taken Poetry Explanation The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost is one of the most famous poems ever written. It is also one of the most misunderstood poems. Many people have been faced with “a fork in the road”. This may include a choice between two decisions, a choice between jobs or careers, or a choice between other things. Because you can only choose one, there is the “road” you did not take. In the future, you may look back on these decisions and may have regrets. The Road Not Taken is about these decisions. The first stanza of the poem states: “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. (Lines 1-5) This, if taken literally, talks about a traveler that cannot choose between two paths in the woods. He has to take one but cannot choose. He is “sorry” that he cannot travel both which implies regret on his decision. He “takes the other, as just as fair” which states that he took the other path. This is a play on words because it could mean that he could view the other path as equal or it could be a fair choice. It states that both roads are equal which implies a good future for both. The poem continues by stating “and perhaps having the better claim, because it was grassy and wanted wear.” The speaker is still unsure because the other one is “perhaps” better. The other path is just as appealing because...

...Emily O’Neil My Semester Journey “It is our choices, Harry, that show us what we truly are, far more than our abilities” ― J.K. Rowling wrote in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. This quote accurately describes my journey this semester of trying to make the correct choice on a major in college. Based on what I choose as my major will show other people who I truly am, not because of what I have accomplished already in my life. Abilities and skills don’t mean anything until you can prove yourself and make the right choices in life. For instance, you could be very good at math and decide to choose a major that has a very light coursework so that you could easily graduate without any problems. Making this decision would be wrong and would show others that the real you aren’t motivated or determined in life. The major that I choose will be something that will challenge me during college and will also agree with my skills. Thinking back to August, I was choosing a major between about three different options. I knew I was interested in animals, construction, and math, but I had no idea how or if I could ever combine the three interests. In the back of my mind, I knew I wanted to challenge myself in college so that I would actually be able to get a high paying job in the future. I knew that choosing a challenging major would pay off in the long run and employers would then see who I truly was, a determined, hard-worker that will do anything to succeed. This is how I coincide...

...As Item A states’ there is a divide over views on the extent of family diversity these Sociological views on family diversity divided into two groups; the modernists and the post-modernists. The modernists include the functionalists, the new right, the neo-conventional family and the Rapoports: five types of family diversity. The functionalists and new right only see the conventional nuclear family as normal and all other family types as deviant, and Chester believes there has been one major change which is the neo-conventional family and finally the rapoports have identified five different types of diversity. The post-modernist include life course analyse, family practices and include sociologists such as Giddens, Beck, Stacey and Weeks. Postmodernism rejects the structural views of society and believe individuals have more choice in their relationships and family practices. The functionalist view on society as fixed and predictable structure. They see the nuclear family as the best family type and helping to maintain structure by preforming vital functions. Talcott Parsons believes there is a ‘functional fit’ with the nuclear family and society, and Parsons sees the nuclear family as suited to meeting modern societies needs for a geographically and socially mobile workforce. He also believes the nuclear family as preforming two ‘irreducible functions’ which are the primary socialisation of children and the stabilisation of adult personalities. As a result of this in the functional...

...The poem presents “Nature’s first green” and calls it “gold.” Throughout the rest of the poem this gold begins to go away and ultimately cannot stay. The poem goes through a natural cycle of life. Not everything can stay in life. Fagan also analyzes this poem in Critic Companion to Robert Frost: A literary Reference to His life and Work. Fagan says “There can be no permanence to nature and living things as the season illustrate.” The seasons always change and that is nature and a part of human life. Nothing is permeant in life to man or nature. This anti-permanence Frost reflects provides evidence of the realism he conveys in his poetry. Frost writes in poem, “But only so an hour.” Nature provides beauty, but temporarily (Fagan). The idea that everything good in life can stay or the idea of permanence is a false ideal Frost realistically points out. Nature even knows this through its natural seasonal...

...Abstract When making a career choice there are many variables students have to consider before making their final decision. Fortunately, students have support from teachers, counselors, parents and other stakeholders to assist them with their choices. Career counselors play a pivotal role in aiding students with this important step, by implementing the tools to guide them in discovering their interests and abilities and matching them with jobs that most appropriately fit their personality styles. A Career Counseling Assessment Programme allows the counselor the opportunity to scrutinise the range of career choices with the student after which the best choice is made in the student’s interest. This requires the counselor to be an objective thinker who is not easily influenced by emotion. This programme gives students the life skills needed to improve their self-concepts, become sentient of educational awareness, economic awareness, develop their skill competence, problem solving abilities and be generally prepared for the world of work. Introduction At some point in the life of students, whilst in the process of choosing a career, they encounter situations when they could benefit from honest advice. Career counselors provide this much needed guidance to students so that they can triumph over this overwhelming process. In the school system career counseling is a student-centered support service where students are guided through the career planning process...

...Factors Affecting the Choice of Courses in College By Cat Reynolds, eHow Contributor When students begin college, they're often intimidated by the rarified atmosphere of intellectual life, so their colleges walk them through course enrollment and see to it that they enroll in a variety of courses designed to give them a good start on academic life. After the first semester, however, students begin to make more informed and independent course choices, which may be based on requirements, practicalities, and personal bent. Other People Are Reading * Factors Affecting Career Choices Among Students * Factors Affecting a Student's Choice of Colleges * * * * Print this article 1. Is it Hard or Easy? * Many freshmen and sometimes sophomores and upper classmen often try to schedule courses that they have heard are easy. This may be a symptom of laziness, but it may also be fear. Sometimes taking a course that seems easy is a practical concern: When a student enrolls in challenging courses, she may offset the workload by enrolling in one "easy" course so that she can still carry a full-time credit load for financial aid purposes and allow enough time and intellectual space for more challenging courses. In fact, College Board, a student advisement organization, recommends this approach. Who's the Professor? * It's not unusual for students to try to get into a course because of the reputation of the professor teaching it. This may be because...

As Sean was leaving class he thought back to his previous class, music appreciation, a class that Sean loved. Sean knew that his parents wouldn’t ever accept him as a musician. He remembered the night before having a heated discussion over texting when Sean almost jokingly texted his dad, “Can I switch my major to music?” “Under no circumstances will that ever be an acceptable decision,” his dad replied swiftly. He could tell that his parents were not joking around. It took long for Sean to actually choose a college; weighing all the pros and cons; looking at what schools would offer him the best scholarships....

...Background and Theoretical Framework of the Study Education prepares children for the world of work and helps them to develop their personal talents, discover who they are, and where they would best fit into society’s workforce as viewed by the Functionalist. They see three main function of education; role allocation, providing skills, and socialization. Education can be seen to provide pupils/ students with the curriculum and hidden curriculum; teaching skills that will prepare them physically, mentally and socially for the world of work in later life (Szarowicz, 2004).

...Health Nursing SZT Task 2 My own perceptions about quality of life have affected my care for patients in end of life situations. I believe more of quality than quantity, several of my family members have died from cancer and secondary effects of treatment of the disease process. Three of my four grandparents have died from terminal cancer and it has taught me that the patient has to be an active part of the decision making for care. One of my grandfather’s chose not to receive any further treatment options other than palliative care after he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s nodular lymphoma with metastasis to his liver and lungs. He chose this option to enjoy the remaining amount of life with his twelve grandchildren and wife. The physicians gave him limited experimental options for treatment with no surgical resolve and he asked the important question for him at the time. Will it prolong my life at the same quality that I have now? The physicians told him that it would probably prolong his life but much of it would be in hospitals and with progressed illness due to the treatments. This led to his choice for palliative care and he lived an additional three years. We enjoyed all of the time we had together and we as a family supported his decision. My other grandfather chose to pursue all of the medical options available to treat his Hodgkin’s lymphoma that was caught in the very early stages. He enjoyed a very long life to the age of ninety-two and survived the disease for twenty-two...

I see myself as someone who is antisocial, unable to make friends, and awkward. Besides these negative aptitudes, I also see many positive aspects of my personality.

...The Role of Sociology in Criminal Justice A person cannot avoid the experience of making decisions from a list full of options and choices in this life. The choices that an individual makes are vital in determining the shape his or her later life will take. Making the choice to attend or not to attend college is one of the choices a high school graduate has to make. It is essential for an individual standing at the cross roads after high school to be visionary in making a decision to join a college. Attending college is worth it because the knowledge obtained cannot be taken away from you. College education contributes significantly to the person development. College learning is both inside and outside classroom. The college experiences are a reminder that adulthood comes with more responsibility. In addition, it instills in a person the virtue that it is essential to work hard for one to succeed. There exist studies that support the need for a student to attend college.
