I have this book. I like it, and I should probably pull it off the shelf more often.\I'm pretty sure I got mine at a thrift shop for just a buck or two.

I have the book of virtues. I keep it in the car and browse through it whenever my daughter is in therapy and I'm waiting for her in the car. I love that book.

I have both of those books as well and use them in my classroom all of the time. We read a piece and then respond to it. The kids love the stories and poems. |

The road less traveled that I took was literally a road. When we decided to build our cabin by hand, with no electricity on our property in Montana and stay there for long periods of time, most of our friends and our daughters thought we were crazy. But, there is no peace and no solace on earth that compares to that. The stars are so much brighter and the night so much more still than anywhere else I have ever been. |

Oh Frannie,
We have this book. He has another one too called The Moral Compass. I enjoy just browsing the different sections.

what "road less travelled" have you walked down .. and what 'difference' did it make in your life?

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.

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.

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.

just opened to Robert Frosts' THE ROAD NOT TAKEN
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;
