Detours

So what's with the title 'Detours of a rural Anglo Armenian educationalist'?



Apart from being wilfully obscure, and bearing in mind the limited words available for a title, I've tried to convey how I see my main interests; and aspects of my character that 'make me tick'. Over the next few days/blog entries I will reflect on each of the key words.


"Detours"........rather picks up on the American poet Robert Frost's famous poem, 'The Road Not Taken' http://www.bartleby.com/119/1.html In which he writes:
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference."


I guess in this blog I am keen to take that "road less traveled"........ burrowing through unfamiliar ground, nosing in to the semi-dark; because we are so busy these days that we rarely stop to think and reflect - what are we doing, why are we doing it, how are we doing, when should we do?? And that's what I'd like to do.........to pause on the journey - in your company - of course.



For what is a detour if undertaken alone?
