What Home Means to Me

Home. A home is not just four walls, windows, and a door, home is where the heart is and it starts with   family. Home is a true gift to behold it's where you can begin a fresh start and make lots of memories inside a   home. It's really inside a home that makes the memories come alive, and that's the true gift. Home is where I can be myself without caring what anyone else thinks, it's where I can laugh ,cry, and be   angry. It's where I can bake cookies with my mom or cuddle with my pets. It's where I can play board games   with my family and laugh at each other in a rough time. These are some memories that make a home a   home. Home can be in all different forms it doesn't have to be an ordinary home it just matters if you call it your   home. Your home doesn’t come alive but it still protects you in different ways. Home can protect you by a   storm. It protects you by having a place to recharge for the morning. It's a safe place to call home, home is a   safe place. Home is not a house, a house is four walls and a door but a home is where the countless memories start and   it starts in the heart of a home. When I think of home I think of having each other's sides and not being   alone, scared nor sadness.       To me home is love and family and even in the darkest and gloomy times family is always there cheering you   up in those times, It's just like your home is always there for you just like your family is. Your home might   not be alive but in some way it's still there for you. Home. home is where you can store lots of objects that make a home, some objects could be whatever you   like thats make you think of your home, When the word home comes to mind i think of my home and my   room and the countless family photos against the wall from over the years, Home is not just where you   throw items in. it's where you can call it your home.       I believe that everyone deserves the feeling of a loving home just like mine.
