Home Can Be Anything

What is home? A very simple but complex question. A home is a place where people feel comfortable, and can relax. Enjoy themselves. It may be where their bed lies, or where they eat dinner. Where people get to feel loved, because they are with friends and family (or just one of the two). Some people even say that their home is a video game, but that’s usually just an expression of how good they are, or how much time they spend playing that game. A home is not just a house. It doesn’t have to have walls, or even a roof. A home can be almost anything, really. Think about it. How about...a chair. A chair when put with a couple more chairs, becomes a bed. A bed could be a home. How about...a headset. Not to gross you out or anything, but there are millions, upon millions of little bugs and creatures inside of everything. Most of them are microscopic, however. Most of them can’t hurt you. But some of those bugs might have a home inside your headset, some might nest in your closet. If you have a pet, then they might have a home inside your house. For example a cat tree or couch. Even your bed could be home to a pet. Everywhere you go, you pass by what others call home.
