春節九天假，可以去哪裡呢？
可以和家人出國度假，可以到親朋好友家拜年，可以到故宮看大英博物館展覽，可以到KTV大唱一場，
可以搭車遠行，去邂逅一份情。
我要去那裡？
告別熱鬧，一個人背著相機，帶著幾天來累積的體重，從蝴蝶花廊走到二子坪，再上面天山。2.1公里
的路程，加上0.6公里的爬坡，終於來到面天山頂。竹子山、大屯山上的雲氣翻湧，三芝淡水一直延伸
到觀音山熟悉的海岸線，盡收眼底。大台北城被一層煙塵罩住，朦朧中還是可分辨那個是新光三越站
前大樓，那個是台北101。
回程途中，想起大一時學過 Robert Frost 的詩"The Road not Taken"。我只有一個，在我面前有好多
條路可以走，該走那一條呢？我選擇走一條人不多的路，沿途中，我可以沿著叫聲找到停在枝頭上的
白頭翁；我可以想著在這條路上曾陪我同行的人與事；我可以比別人有更高的視野，享受冬陽照耀下
的美景。
雖然我沒有走另一條路，但我不會後悔。希望我年老時，還能保有這份認真。
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth.
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.
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.
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.
陽光照耀下的小徑
導航板是面天山頂的標幟
竹子山上風起雲湧
登面天山而小觀音(山)
我和我的影子
