The title alludes to the fact 'Not All Roads' from the source maps were included, only those that suited me visually. But it also argues against the idiomatic expression, “All roads lead to Rome”, an oft-used phrase meaning there are many different ways to reach the same outcome or destination or achieve the same result. However, not all roads are of one’s choosing, nor are they equal, nor do they lead to the same place - to a life where basic needs are met, where love and belonging and peace exist.
