What Home Means To Me

Home is everything. Home is your beginning. Home to me, is where I feel safe, and feel cozy, and I know that when I’m home I can be myself, with no judgement whatsoever. Everyday when I get home from school, the minute I walk in the door I feel a rush of an indescribable feeling because I know that when I’m home I’m valued, I’m relaxed and I’m loved no matter what Home is where I have some of my greatest memories, and where me and my family bond and have good times. I also feel very safe when I’m home, I feel protected and not alone. Home to me is my bed, my food, and my life. At my home I can play road hockey and play volleyball in my yard. I can watch movies with my whole family, and argue about pointless things with my brothers, but that is still part of my home. My home is where I wake up to the birds singing every single morning and where I see deer running across my lawn. My house is everything to me and I couldn’t imagine life without it and I know that when you get a home you won't be able to either.
