What is Home For Me?

Home could be a place I feel loved, cared for, comfortable, confident, happy, and feel big inside. Is home a place you smell home cooked meals, or see loved faces feel the warmth of the fireplace. A place that feels safe? Is that a home? Is home a place I am on ice peering out looking for the puck, a place in a crease where I am stuck, people shooting at me, where I act big and I am as fierce as a cheetah, and as big as an elephant, a place I could be denied but i’ll still be big inside. Is that home? Is home a place you sit, listen, learn, work a home? Where you do all sorts of different types of activities, if it is reading or running in a gym, learning different ways to do the base line stuff. Is that home? Home for me is a place where I feel safe, comfortable, and can feel emotions, can feel as small as a hamster, as sad as a rainy cloud, as happy as the bright sun. Is that home?
