Then took the other, as just as fair,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

Present:- Taika lives on the edge of the Eliery Kingdom
- he loves listening to stories from any rare travellers
- He has almost completely mastered his current magic but is always looking for new spells or ways to use it
- Has a very deep connections to the spirits both from the Eliery Kingdom and from those abroad
- He loves to commune with the spirits
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
Future:- Wants to become an expert at Communing with spirits
- Wants to travel and see the Kingdom of the Sky gain
- wants to pass on his knowledge when he's learnt more
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Success occurs when your dreams get bigger than your excuses.

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
