...know the place for the first time.

Mr. Frodo leaving his home - the Shire.

As we conclude our unit on archetypes, I want you to think about a time in which you left home, came back, and knew "the place for the first time" as TS Eliot suggests we all do.  How did home seem to you before you left?  How did this once-familiar place seem when you got back?  Why do you suppose this change occurred?  How had your perception changed from the time you left, lived (experienced something new), and returned?
