What Do I Think Life Would Be Like Without Regrets?

      Most people get a job they do not like because they get paid more than I job they would like. Robert Frost in my point of view is an introvert person because he would write poems about life. In his poem “After Apple-Picking”, Frost uses metaphor by trying to find desires in one’s life but instead only regrets.
      There were many metaphors Frost used. One I chose was, “My long two-pointed ladder’s sticking through a tree/Toward heaven still,” (L: 1-2). What I got from this was Frost may be finding many regrets but soon he will find happiness.
      There was a difficult choose of choosing another metaphor. Although it was a tough choice, a metaphor I chose was, “the woodchuck could say whether it’s like his/Long sleep, as I describe its coming on/Or just some human sleep,” (L: 40-43). What I got from this is that a person would not know if it was a day dream or another long day of regret.
     To me, my happiness would be doing what I want to do without worrying about money.  What I would like to own my own sweet shop. If I get to have my own sweet shop I would name it “Maysel Sweeten’s Sweet Shop”.  I have been told that I should open a sweet shop because of my last name. Another reason why I would like to own one is because I love baking cake and cupcakes and sweets like that. I think if I do not accomplish something I would like to do then I feel I would have regrets and so what I feel that Frost is trying to state in his poem is that if someone does not do ideas or things someone like to do you may have regrets.
