Home is My Happy Place

My meaning of home is something special…like something different only home can give you. This feeling, it just hits different. Home is where you feel safe; where you can cry. Maybe you cry in your room or to your mom or dad but whoever you cry to they'll make you feel better. Maybe they'll say something encouraging or something funny to make you laugh. Home is where you can be happy, something I do when I'm happy is I’ll maybe call my friends or do some weird dance for no reason. You can be yourself without judgment. Home is where you can get a break. You can let your head sink into your pillow as you go to sleep in your comfortable bed with your stuffed animals surrounding you. I would always put all of my stuffed animals on my bed at once so no of them felt left out. With your warm blankets on top of you, you feel safe like nothing can hurt you. It has that same feeling as home. Home is like a big bubble filled with memories and adventures waiting for you inside. You can find anything at home, maybe your siblings or your pets. Pets are more than just animals they’re family too. They’re a big part of home; it wouldn't be the same without them there. I'm always excited to come home from school and see their cute precious faces waiting for me patiently at the door. Your siblings can be very annoying at times. I know all about it but if they weren't there there'd be no one to talk to about the drama at school or anything like that. My home is chaotic and fun. It's like a big story book that unfolds as you walk through the halls of your home. My home is more than a house; it's almost like a big fun bouncy house where you jump through the memories and the laughter. Home has a certain smell that no other place has in the entire world and the world's a big scary place but at home when you smell that certain smell it almost like it tells you its alright like there's nothing to worry about. Home feels like your home is giving you a big warm tight hug that won't let go no matter what. The smell that makes me feel at home is the great smell of my dad’s mac and cheese or that one perfume that my sister wears. Home isn't just a building, it's somewhere where I can let my feelings go wild and free. Home is special where the heart is the great feeling of safety and warmth. Families aren't just people. They are someone you build your wonderful life with.
