What Home Means to Me

My home is very important to me. The definition of home is the place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or household. Although I agree with this definition, my home also makes me feel mentally, emotionally and physically secure. First of all, my home makes me feel relaxed. My home makes me feel relaxed because I can be my own self. I can be myself by lying on the couch watching TV and eating chips. That is relaxing because nobody is going to make fun of me or bother me when I am relaxed. In addition, my home is where I live with my family. I have 3 brothers, my mom and my dad. What I like most about my family is that they are supportive. They show their support by cheering me on when I am playing basketball. I know that I can always rely on my family. Lastly, my home makes me feel safe. My home makes me feel safe during storms and rain. When a storm is happening, I feel protected by the roof over my head. In conclusion, my home is special to me in many ways. Most importantly, my home makes me feel relaxed, connected with my family and makes me feel safe. As a result, my home helps me feel mentally, emotionally and physically healthy every day.
