The ways in which the concept of journey is considered and expressed in and through the texts 'The Road Not Taken' by Robert Frost and 'Whose Life Is It Anyway?' by Brian Clark

Texts definitely convey different types of journey, for example physical journey, inner journey and imaginary journey. All these journeys are expressed through perspectives that are enhanced by the word choice, such as metaphor and irony. In 'The Road Not Taken' by Robert Frost, inner journey which is the journey of the mind and spirit is shown. The composer realized that in life, he has to make many choices as shown by the metaphor 'crossroads' and …

…judge that his life was indeed unvaluable and he has made a rational decision. It was a tough choice he made in life and that has made the difference to him and those around him. From the texts, it is clearly shown that life is all about making choices and a single choice would affect one's whole life. There is no turning back after we had made a choice and we gain experience from it.
