Answer 6

Dios nos brinda diariamente toda clase de escrucijada; la mayoría parecen triviales - si voy a responder con un insulto si alguien me ofende o si le voy a responder con amistad. Cada uno de nosotros cosechamos la fruta que hemos sembrado.

Daily God offers us every type of crossroad; most of them seem trivial - if I am going to respond with an insult if someone offends me or if I am going to respond in friendship. Each one of us harvests the fruit that we have planted.

Answer 7

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by And that has made all the difference.

Dos caminos divergieron en el bosque, y yo - Yo escogí el menos usado Y eso ha hecho toda la diferencia.
