What is Home?

“A house is made of brick and mortar, but home is made by the people who live there.” -M. K. Soni What is home? I think about is question almost daily. What is home? Well in my opinion, home isn't just house it’s a place where you have memories bad and good. It’s a place were where you can feel how you feel, be who you are. But most importantly it’s a place where you are loved. I live in a small one-story house, it may not be a mansion but I have memories there I would not trade a million dollars for my house, not even a billion. It’s not just my house, that’s important. It’s my community also. If I did not have all the activities like sailing and taekwondo life would be kind of dull. I know I'm lucky to have a house, but a lot of people don't. I could not imagine what it would be like to not have one, but sadly some people do, everyone deserves a place to call home. Back to my first question “what is home?,” Home is a place that you feel safe, comfortable, and most importantly, loved.
