What Home Means To Me

For me, home is more of a feeling than a place. It feels like a place I can always come back to. It is also a place where I can feel free to be myself without anyone judging me. As I grow up, every time I step into my home I know there will be memories for me to remember and look back to. No matter where I go or how long I’m gone, home will always be there. Home is also a place to relax and have fun. Talking with family, playing board games and even just sitting around with nothing to do can also be entertaining if someone does it in the right place. Home is the right place when it comes to playing around with relatives and friends. When I am at home, I always feel like I have the freedom to do whatever I like. Whatever it is, I can always express myself in different ways. Whether I am sad, mad or happy, home is always the place where I can show those feelings. Home is not only filled with happy memories but also filled with sad memories. I believe that it is important to always cherish the happy moments that took place in our homes but also reflect on the sad moments that took place. I feel like another main part about home is safety. I know that in the darkest moments that my family will always be there for me. On the other hand my home also gives my family and I shelter. One thing I know is that home is always the place that I can depend on to keep me and my loved ones safe. I hope this essay can help build a home for the people who really need it.
