Homeward Bound--My Incredible Performance

Today was all about returning to a state of previous being. Whether we are returning home, or discovering a place for the first time, the fact is that we all will return to someplace in our lives whether it be metaphorically, or physically we will return to some place of comfort and know it for the first time or some different version of that place.

I chose Homeward Bound the Incredible Journey as my lowbrow material for our presentation. Judging from your reactions many of you have seen and enjoyed enough to mimic the ending in perfect unison with the movie.

"We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started"


We all have a homing device that helps us find our direction home. I like to call it a six sense. I know that seeing dead people might sound like a cooler extra sense to have, but in terms of this class a directional sense that leads us home no matter how far our exploration takes us, is pretty cool.

Returning home is triumphant, it provides a sense a closure to the epic journey. No one is ever too old to return home, we all must to complete our journey. Shadow was not complete until he fulfilled his loyalty to Peter and reunited with him.


"And know the place for the first time"
