all the difference


So glad our roads are the same
So glad I didn't travel alone
So glad for our time together
Life being together has made all the difference.

The Road Not Taken Robert Frost
*
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

There is no end to the good we can do, to the influence we can have with others. Let us not dwell on the critical or the negative. Let us pray for strength, let us pray for capacity and desire to assist others. Let us radiate the light of the gospel at all times and all places that the Spirit of the Redeemer may radiate from us. President Gordon B. Hinckley
