What is the True Meaning of Home?

What is the True Meaning of Home? What is the meaning of Home? Many people are unsure what the word "home" means. Some have explanations, while others have topics; they are all unique. There is no right or wrong answer; people simply mix up houses with homes. I'm going to argue that a home is significantly different from a house. In order to explore these issues in more depth, this essay will look at the concepts of a home and a house, as well as the differences between the two. It comes to a close with the key terms "house" and "home." Firstly, a home is much more different than a house. A home is where your true happiness is. I don’t think you need a large house to be comfortable or happy. The family who lives in the house is the source of happiness. Happiness binds a home. The exteriors of celebrities'/famous people's homes may appear grand, but what about the interiors? I’ve seen some people that live by the motto “The bigger the house, the happier the home.” What they don't understand is that a big house doesn’t guarantee a happy home. Maybe that is why it is said, "Home is where the heart is." Have you ever heard the saying, "House is where the heart is?" Don't you think it sounds strange? Moving on, a house is a building. It's basically a structure that contains materials and products. It is not a home even if you have a house. A house isn't necessarily a home unless you're happy living there (or you know that you belong there). Even if there are no people living inside, a house is still a house. Personally, I am happy to be in my current home. It may not be large, but it has all of the necessities. In conclusion, I say that there is a wide gap of difference between a house and a home. Saying that a house and a home are similar is just like saying that a plant is similar to a calculator. I believe that if you are happy with your family despite the fact that you do not have a home, it is worthy to be called a pleasant home. A house is nothing more than "protection." Your ultimate "happiness" is your home. By - Yashua
