The meaning of home (at least to me)

Home is more than just the place where you live. To me home means feeling safe and comfortable, like you belong. It’s where you can relax, be yourself, and not worry about anything. Home isn’t just about the house; it’s about the people in it and the memories you create. Primarily, home is where you have family and friends who care about you. Whether it’s your parents, siblings, or even pets, they make you feel loved and supported. When I’m at home, I know that no matter what happens outside, I have people who will be there for me. It's where I can always count on someone to listen to me, whether I’m happy, sad, or just bored. Finally, home is where you feel safe. It’s where you can sleep peacefully and not be afraid. Home is the one place where you can just be yourself without worrying about what others think. It’s where you can make mistakes and learn from them, knowing that you are still loved and accepted. Home is a place that gives you some joy.
