Husam Nazar Rashid) from the English department , Where it has been explained about, “The Road Not Taken: A Journey of Choice” explores the significance of decisions and their lasting impact on our lives. Inspired by Robert Frost’s iconic poem, the piece reflects on how moments of choice define our personal narratives. Each decision, whether monumental or minor, shapes our identity and directs our path forward. The journey examines the emotional complexity of choosing one path over another, often without knowing where it may lead. It also considers the lingering sense of wonder or regret that can accompany the roads left unexplored. Ultimately, this work invites readers to embrace the uncertainty of choice as an essential part of the human experience. At the end of the Symposium a set of questions and answers were raised on this subject "The Road Not Taken: A Journey of Choice" reveals that our decisions, no matter how simple they may seem, make a difference in shaping our future and identity. Every path we take carries its own opportunities and challenges, while the ones we leave behind remain in our memories as incomplete possibilities. Despite the confusion and anxiety that may accompany the process of choosing, it is within that process that the essence of human freedom lies. Embracing the outcomes of our decisions is what gives our lives depth and meaning. Life is not only about the destinations we reach, but about the roads we choose to follow. In this way, every journey of choice becomes an experience worthy of reflection and celebration.
