Less Traveled Roads: February 2015
http://mikesslowroad.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." Robert Frost. Saturday, February 28, 2015. February 9, 1959.

This implies a responsibility, to all for all, to the past for the future, which is the reflection of a humble and spontaneous response to Life- - - with its endless possibilities, and its unique present which never happens twice.".

http://mikesslowroad.blogspot.com/2015/07/talks-with-my-mother-1.html
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." Robert Frost. Sunday, July 19, 2015. Talks with my Mother 1. Her process for seeing the world has been locked in, say, 1958! Religion in her world is 1958, Social Changes are based on 1958, etc. She doesn't have good reference points to discuss Gay marriage or even interracial marriage. Liberal to her means changing from the norms of her early adulthood when life was simple. I used to argue with h...

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." Robert Frost. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. He is close to my mother's age! Then I occurred to me that no one ever says that I look like my dad. If they did I would like that, but no one ever does. There are worst comparisons like Hitler or Barry Switzer. Glad I don't look like Obama! Someone would have taken me out by now. In my world it is. Maybe I'll just grow a beard! The Road Less Traveled. The M...
