We leave the home of our upbringing, sooner or later, for all kinds of reasons.

We leave and cleave and weave, which I think is our Creator's intent. Yet it can be a difficult time, leaving scars and stress marks for those who leave and those who remain behind.

The movie notes some of the reasons for such departure and many of us remember both the sadness, perhaps, and the anticipation of getting out on one's own - to meet new friends, explore new places, find and share more fully our gifts and the reason we're here.
