Ahmad Mitchell · Answer 2

Both life choices were actually very similar.

Explanation:

As both the roads are worn out really about the same it suggests that almost same number of people have chosen both the roads, hence there seems to be no essential difference between the two as both are taken by similar number of people.

In terms of the metaphorical meaning the choices seem to be very similar and yet it seems difficult to choose between them because of man's inability to choose between two paths and then not wondering what the other had in store.
