The Meaning of Home

The meaning of home is a lot of different things for different people, but here is what it means for me. The meaning of home for me is with my family in MY home. Home is nowhere else but where I live now; not where my sister was born and not even in England, even if I would love to go there again. Just here. Home is with all my Lego (I have a lot my estimation: 50-70 sets!). Home is also with my bed and my devices. I know that sounds snobby or over privileged but, in my opinion, it is not. For example, I do not just like my Nintendo Switch because it has YouTube and animal crossing, but because it has memories like when me and my family beat super Mario bros. For me, that is a big milestone. That is why for the meaning of home is always the memories, and nobody can ever change that, or take them away. What does the meaning of home mean to you? Because if it means when you are with your soccer team it feels like home, you are a lot like my friend Alice. Or if it means where you can practice your religion, then you are similar to my friend Hannah. Or maybe you are like my cousin where the meaning of home is with your family because one of your your parents is in the military, and you are always moving. Then again your meaning of home could be completely different and not like anyone I know, or anyone you know. All you need to know is that your meaning of home is always yours.
