Meaning of Home

A home means something different to different people but to me it means I can be myself and I am welcome no matter what. It is also where I go when I am sad, mad, or happy because I know that it is filled with loved ones. It is also warm and has comfort. It does not have to be a house, it just has to feel good, it can be a tent or a bus, but you just have to love it. My dad works with some people who do not have a home, but he gives them a tent and that is the start of a home. My home is not about the walls or the roof, it is about the people, the love and memories inside of it. When you move to a new house it is not a home, you have to live love and make memories to make it a home. I moved last year, and I did not like it, but I liked the people in there and the things in it and in a matter of time I liked it and now I am proud to call it my home.my home is a feeling not a place because it is not about the building it's about the love and the people.
