an took was obviously not for everyone because it seemed to him that the majority of the people took the other path. The fact that the traveler chooses the less travled path over the more travled indicates the personality type of the traveler. The traveler seeks to be unique and go against the grain of society.He starts the next stanza with,"And both that morning equally lay/In leaves no step had trodden black." The roads are described as if they had not been walked on that day. Perhaps, Frost does this because each time a person comes to the point where they have a decision to make, the situation seems new to them. Also, Frost probably made the narrator alone to emphasize how alone people are in their decisions. Next in the stanza, Frost says "oh, I kept the first for another day!/Yet knowing how way leads on to way,/I doubted if I should ever come back." The traveler comes to the realization that he will never get to experience where the other road lead. He will continue on the road that he chose and he will never come to the same place where those same "two roads diverged."Frost says in the next stanza,"I shall be telling this with a sigh/Somewhere ages and ages hence:/Two roads diverged in a wood..." The sigh in the poem is very important because how it is interpreted can change the whole meaning of the poem for the reader. If the reader interprets the sigh as a sigh of regret then the poem will be seen as an expression of that regret. The poem will have to do with the fact that we, as mortal humans don't have the ability to explore all of life's possibilities.However, if the sigh is seen as being more meaningless to the traveler, then the poem could be seen as a satire. And the travelers decision could be seen as more of a spur-of-the-moment choice. Then in reality, he deserves no credit for his decision and Frost would then be playing the role of the average man. He would be poking fun at man's tendency to make a whim...
