The "Road not Taken" by Robert Frost is an elaborate poem that has several layers of depth and meaning. Gabe and I have looked in depth at this poem and it's extended metaphor and concluded that this poems extended metaphor is:
"The only way to influence the world is by doing something different, something the world doesn't have yet, thinking out side of the box and using imagination and creativity."
However, this isn't the only extended metaphor we think is true to the poem, and many puzzle pieces still not resolved. That is why we need your help
Use this forum to collaborate and discuss your ideas and thoughts and potentially solve crucila puzzle pieces and maybe in another blog post or live stream, Gabe and I will review all your interpretations and use them to re investigate this poem.
Off you go then... Have fun :)

I feel as if this poem's message is that being different or doing different thing isn't bad and is good. Standing out from the crowd makes a difference. Maybe not to anyone else but definitely to you.
