Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, but I chose neither one. Instead, I set sail in my little boat to watch a sunset from a different view that couldn't be seen from shore. Then I climbed the tallest mountain peak to watch the amber sun through the clouds.

It was every perspective I experienced on my journey that left the leaves trodden black. And that has made all the difference. ↗
