Frost uses the roads as a metaphor for life’s many choices‚ and exemplifies how these they decide a person’s outcome in life. It can also be interpreted that the speaker in the poem is promoting individualism‚ self reliance and wondering what he might have missed by not taking the other road.

    Here is an anti bullying poem written by Jon Evans: Identity–The Bully They all try to look the same
all try to give themselves a name
pick on the boy who is all alone
just because his identity is his own

instead of trying to look cool
feel for the guy you make look a fool A cool identity isn’t a need
