The woods are lovely , dark and deep...

The woods are lovely , dark and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep....

This poem is such a relate. During the course of our lives, we come across some situations or some people who are as inviting as those deep and dark woods were for Frost on that snowy evening! sometimes we just wish that we could forget everything and take refuge in those restful, tranquil, lovely and deep woods and be oblivious to everything else. The pull is so strong! BUt then , there is the pull of responsibilities and obligations. The pull of commitments, relations and promises!! AH!!! the promises that keep us going....Promises that keep us rooted! We can only admire those lovely , dark and deep woods for a while and then move on, carry on with life, carry on with a smile!! The serene woods can remain in the memory as a joy forever, but we have to carry on with the journey, because_ we all have promises to keep and miles to go before we sleep........
