Correction...and freedom

I have put onto this blog a poem by Robert Frost entitled 'The road not taken'. I previously in one of my entries referred to this poem but gave it the wrong title of 'A road less traveled' by M Scott Peck- the two names are often confused and I cannot go back to make the correction as I can't remember where I used the reference. My deepest apologies. The poem refers to many things but I have used it in the context of the path I decided to take. I have no problem in making my truth known nor the things I believe in. I have lived a life full of imperfections and mistakes but have little regrets. The people I have loved whether realized or not were extra-ordinary individuals and they have helped me to lean much about myself in the process. For me, the act of creation is a striving toward freedom. A thought occurred to me the other day that to label anything even though I have named many things such as it being African or any other or anything Religious or spiritual limits itself within the definition. It restricts freedom to move within that space by giving name to it. I will try to no longer place those limitation on anything even in relationships. From now it just 'is' without such boxes....peace, love and freedom
