my virsion of the meaning of home

What is the meaning of home to me? Home to me is where there is lots of love, family, and memories. To me, a home is not just a roof, walls, and doors. It's way more than that. I have lived in my home for almost two or three years, and so many amazing memories have happened and not so great memories have happened. In a home, you get sad, happy, or even angry. I have all sorts of emotions in my home. When I'm in my home I feel warm and safe. In my home I can celebrate my birthday, I can celebrate big milestones. I can be myself and not be embarrassed, and I can also have fun and do what I want as long as it is okay with my mom and dad. I have a dog, a sister, a mom, and a dad. When my dog Gracie died, everyone in my family and I felt like a piece of our home and heart was missing. But then we got a new dog Stella a few months later. My home is an amazing thing to have and I am so grateful. There are people struggling on the streets for money or food or clothes, and other things to survive. because they can't afford to buy a home. Sometimes to people who can't afford a home try to go to jail sometimes for food, but I can just expect food. Now think about what does home mean to you?
