Two roads diverged in a yellow wood

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
I just reread this poem after I wonder why I chose law school. I remember last year my mom and uncle said law school does not fit me since it is too hard. They said I should just choose an easy major and get an easy job. However, I know that an easy job can't win me a green card and there is no shortcut to success. Today, after I read this poem, I realize that I choose a path that lots of international students do not choose. That makes all the difference. What do you guys think of this poem? Besides the LSAT, we can still have some discussions for fun to avoid burn-out. :)

    Aaaaand here it is already!!!

    My friend compared LSAT-fixation to when a mother has a new baby ... life is baby/baby/baby and then when she's away from baby, she has no idea what to do with herself.

    That baby is about to grow up!

    @nicole.hopkins, I guess LSAT takers will feel so empty after the LSAT is done.

    Agreed. I also love this poem and revisit it from time to time as I study for my LSAT:

    You may succeed with yet another blow."
