What Home Means To Me

Home can be anywhere with anyone, most people think a home is the same as a house. Well, a house is a place with a floor and four walls of stones and with bricks. You may think they are the same but they are not. A home is where you live, sleep and eat. But it's way more than that, home is love, family and dreams, home is a place where you don't have to be afraid it is a place where you can have fun with those who you love, it could be your siblings, your parents and friends even your pets it's a place you can be yourself. When you're at home you can express your feelings you can be honest. When I'm at home with the people who I love I am full of laughter and happiness, when we are at home your goals become achievements, home is full of love, comfort and kindness. I am so thankful for my home. I always feel loved and safe, it doesn’t matter how big or small your home is, it only matters what it means to you, you can always make new memories to add to the old. My memories from when I am at home are when I first got my dog and I brought her into my home, home means a lot to me to my family, my dog and probably everyone who has a home, for those of you who don't have a home, you can get one. You don't need money or bills only love, and most importantly fun. My home is open to everyone. I was so happy when I got to write this to show those who don’t have a home that we all care, we are all family and family cares for one another no matter how old or young. When you're at home you don't have to make more mistakes. It is a place where you can learn from those mistakes that you have made in the past. I think that everyone should have a home. I am so grateful for my home, my home is in my heart and it will always be.
