HOME AFTER WAR WHEN SOMEBODY’S VILLAGE IS DESTROYED, WHERE DO THEY GO? HOME? NO. THEY DON’T HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE, NO HOME TO LIVE IN. HOME IS A PLACE TO LIVE, SLEEP, WAKE UP, AND PLAY GAMES WITH FRIENDS OR FAMILY. BUT MOST IMPORTANT IT IS A PLACE TO FEEL HAPPINESS, TO FEEL JOY, TO FEEL LIKE YOU BELONG. WHEN YOU FEEL SCARED YOU WILL GO HOME, NOT ANYWHERE ELSE. HOME IS PART OF YOUR BODY AND MIND. HOME IS A PLACE THAT WILL ALWAYS COMFORT YOU, WHEN EITHER YOU ARE SAD OR MAD. HOME FEELS LIKE A PLACE FULL OF LIFE AND HAPPINESS. WHEN IT GETS OLD AND DECAYED YOU GET TO SEE IT GET RE-BUILT OR A LITTLE PIECE GETS REPAIRED. IT’S HEART WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME NO MATER WHAT, IT MIGHT HAVE HOLES, OR HALF OF IT’S BODY RE-BUILT. BUT IT WILL STILL HAVE THE SAME HEART AND HAPPINESS. HOME FEELS LIKE A PART OF MY BODY AND MY LIFE.
