Plantations Hazards The term plantation is widely used to describe large-scale units where industrial methods are applied to certain agricultural enterprises. These enterprises are found primarily in the tropical regions of Asia, Africa and Central and South America, but they are also found in certain subtropical areas where the climate and soil are suitable for the growth of tropical fruits and vegetation.

to pick, the road not taken or the well-worn path. Will the paths meet in the middle or take me different ways? This poem was written in first person so I wonder if he was conflicted about something in his life. He states that it was written on one of his friends who took the wrong path. (Hollis, 2014) “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,” This is meant to be two roads that start out as one and splits into different directions. We all start out on a path and we need to pick our roads and the directions

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

and symbolism frequently to enhance the telling of their literary works. There are many people who travel a distance in life to find the path they should take or to remember the path they once took. In the poem “The Road Not Taken”, and the short story "I Used to Live Here Once", there are many similarities and differences. The authors’ use of describing a path helps them personify life’s journeys and self-reflection. Robert Frost uses imagery to describe two different journeys in life that could

Thesis: The same path taken will not lead to the same destination This thesis is important to me. It is a commentary on our humanity and both our common and disparate journeys. In our collective sojourns not everyone will arrive at the same destination even though the same path was taken. Is this statement altruistic or naïve? I think this comment is about humanity at its best. Conformity is not an answer but a compromise. Mediocrity is another outcome of taking the same path with the expectation

my choices, I eventually choose to head towards the Country. I’m not sure exactly why I decided to head this way, but something inside of me tells me that it is the way that I need to go. A sense of fate you could call it. As I’m walking down the path I chose all of a sudden there is a fallen tree blocking the road. The tree is a large Redwood tree, whose width is roughly four and a half or five feet wide. I could walk around it, but since I am alone in a forest I’m not

New and True Benefits That Self-Study Brings Often, when we first set out on the path of self-study, we begin with unrealistic or just plain mistaken expectations about what it will do for us. The unconscious wish that fuels this early stage of self-study is simply to become a better "old" person, rather than to become a completely new person. Perhaps we have visions of suddenly becoming capable of handling with ease any set of troublesome circumstances; or that our newly enlarged self-knowledge

incur that this poem, without directly mentioning anything about life's decisions, is in its entirety about just that. Robert Frost interpreted most of the decisions we make in life into this twenty-line poem of a man choosing which path to take in a "yellow wood". Everyday I make a decision to do a certain task, take that certain walk, or to sit at home and do absolutely nothing. Being one person, I can never know for sure what the exact outcome might be if I were to choose the
