Home

Home can be a variety of things but mostly home is a place of things your heart desires and feels safe and calm. Home is not just a place that keeps you safe but home is where you can show and feel your emotions. Home is also where you can be and act like yourself. Home can also be a person that maybe makes you smile or even laugh but the biggest meaning is that nothing else compares then your kind of home. Home is not the kind of home where you can’t act like yourself. No; home is a place where you feel welcome and invited to be whoever you are. My home is a bit different from what I was talking about. My kind of home is a beautiful place where the leaves and grass fly in the wind, and flower petals float up into the sky beside a lake clearer than crystal. Every time I walk into that summer campground home, I feel like myself again, with my friends greeting me with smiles. Home is not just a house or somewhere you live — home is where you feel safe and welcome. Love, Kayla O. 198 words
