Meaning of Home

Home is not a building, or a structure. It is a place, a place that belongs to YOU, a secure, comforting, safe place that belongs to YOU. It isn`t anybody else's, it is only YOU and your family`s. But not everybody gets a home, even though they deserve it. Everybody deserves a home, no matter who they are. I am incredibly grateful to have a safe, secure, fun home. Although, I wish everybody could get a home. I love my home, all my favourite places, I personally like my living room, but I have another room that I like. In between my bedroom and our bathroom there`s a room that we call “the middle room.” It functions as an office / piano / video game room. But I also like all the good smells in my home. For example, I love the smell when you just open a freshly baked pizza box and the smell of cookies just coming out of the oven. There are amazing sounds in my home too, like the sound of my dog barking when my best friend comes over, and noise my video game makes when it finally loads. I like disc golf, so I love the feel of a disc strait from the factory. I also do lots of activities like soccer, card games, board games, go for walks, basketball, sledding, video games, and reading. Clearly home is an AMAZING place!
