Quantum psychics? Roll of the dice,, unlikely. It does seem to have a pattern indicative of something.

But...what if yer, Scottish?
I mean the "pattern" would drive you nuts! It will kill a chameleon if it runs across the plaid in a tartan!

So, Mys...if you aren't "paying taxes" then there is no longer the need to experience "fear"?
Am I to infer this supposition?
Just curious.

Well, there was my father. He'd go down one fork and quickly decide it was wrong, go down the other fork, decide that was wrong, and return to the first, going perhaps one mile further than the time before, then spin around once more for the other fork. Rinse, repeat.On another note (not music), I wonderhow many people came across that "fork? in the road, made a choice, but only a little while on THAT road, doubled back, and went down the OTHER road?

Interesting, DR.
Would liked to have met him. Your dad.
I guess that "fork" could mean many things to many people, eh? Vocations/marriages/skill-sets/changing locales/political parties/music genres/companies/religions/educations...the choices are many.
And, how many have looked back at that "fork" and now wonder, how things would be different today, if only...?

Indeed. Indecision and lack of commitment affect many areas of life. It didn't work for him - he died at 52 when I was just 24. In spite of all that, he was an interesting man. His party trick was the recitation of "The Raven" in its entirety - particularly riveting after 4 or 5 bourbons.
Cheers to Dad!

What happens when the road not taken is no longer available once the prong has been chosen?On another note (not music), I wonder

Good question!
Oft times the road not taken has a time limit attached to it. Age might be a barrier, such as a female wanting to have a baby, or some one wanting to go into a certain occupation.
If the above is the case, choice has been removed, and there is no going back! Many feel regret.
Sometimes it takes time to realize that the chosen path was the correct one to have taken. I can think of several situations wherein a person can retro, that long term it was better to have chosen what they did at the time of choice.

I've been re-watching "LOST" (2004) - which is all about roads, forks, what-ifs, happenstance, serendipity, and the endless perturbations of life as it unfolds in our rearview mirrors. It's a pretty good attempt at demonstrating the alternate roads.
