title : The Road Less Travelled
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; 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, 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. 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
... by Robert Frost This is one of my favorite poems we studied back in High School. And it is apparently Mat Devine's favorite poem too. If you don't know already, I look up to Mat Devine a lot. Maybe it's because he has a huge genuine and caring heart. Or maybe he's simply a great musician. Or that he's so talented that he land himself a part in Spiderman on broadway. Or maybe I just love his mind work, so quirky and a little hint of sarcasm and plentiful genius. I'm sure I've mentioned Mat kept a blog on Fuse.tv.com called Raccoon Society in it he encourages fans or troubled people in general to post up questions about their problems and he'll respond through a new post or video posts to help those people. You see, Mat Devine to me is not just another musician crush. He is tangible. He's down to earth. No, he's the salt of the earth. He reach out to people and people respond to his kindness.
