He was at a difficult time in his life, to remain in USA where he was not given recognition or to migrate to England.
Why was it so difficult for the poet to make a decision? Give reasons.Īns.It was difficult for the poet to make a decision as he had no idea what any of them had in store for him. We have to continue with the decision we once make whatever the outcome. Life does not deal in rewinding and coming back to end one’s decisions or undo mistakes. But somewhere in his mind he is troubled with the thought that maybe he would not be able to do so. Which road does the poet choose? Why? Is he happy about his decision?Īns.He chose the road not frequented, which had not been trodden so far reflecting and arguing with himself that maybe some day he would come back, find that road and walk on it. Even if we wish, we cannot start all over again. After taking decisions we cannot undo them, we can only regret them. It is only the future that will reveal, whether the decision is wrong or not. Many alternatives are available at the time of choice but man has to select one. Thus the poet speaks of the basic problems of making the right choice. He would tell that since he had taken the road less travelled, it made all the difference. The poet feels that after ages from now he would be looking at this decision with a ‘sigh’. 
This is the irony of life, we cannot travel on all the available roads, no matter howsoever we may wish to. Later he wishes that he had taken the other road. He decides to try the other road, some other time, knowing fully well that he will not get a chance to go back to it.
He feels this choice will make all the difference to his future life. Then he decides to choose the road, which was grassy and needed ‘to wear’.
The poet while travelling on foot in the woods reaches a junction where two roads diverge and he has to choose one among them He stands there for long.
