"I'm one of those people who, when I encounter a fork in a path in the woods, regret that I cannot travel down both paths. It bothers me that I don't know where the other path goes. Maybe it's something great - a waterfall or scenic view - but alas, we cannot be in two places at once. I must take my chances, choose a path and stick to it.
"It's a classic conundrum. In “The Road Not Taken,” Robert Frost writes,
'Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood'
In a recent commentary, Father Michael Rennier
reflected on how the Annunciation can be an inspiration for persons facing indecisiveness.
