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;
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
生活中充滿大大小小的選擇,小如出門要穿那件衣服,大如升學、就業、結婚,我們會 經歷猶豫迷惘、思考評估、然後才做成決定。即便思前想後如此慎重考慮,之後還是會 想像如果是另一個選擇會不會更好?
真的可以重新選擇嗎?詩人告訴我們一條路接著另一條路,不會有重來的機會了。其間 有得有失、有捨有得,所以造就現在的我。我想就算有機會重來,可能還是會做相同的 選擇。佛教唯識學的觀念,我們的行為受到第六意識、第七末那識及第八阿賴耶識的交 相薰習,根深蒂固,要改變非常不易。
朋友說當年如果選擇電子業可能較適合,另一位朋友說電子業也不容易呀,我想應該說 賺錢都不是輕鬆簡單的事。吃苦耐勞、努力前進,自助人助、關關難過關關過,老天爺 會幫助認真努力的人。 撰寫人: 王俐云 日期:2022.12.13
