Meaning of Home

When I hear the word home, I think of where my friends and family are. I don't care where I am, from a hotel room to my house, if my friends are with me, I feel at home. At home, everyone has the right to be themselves. You can do anything you want [as long as it's allowed]. My Mom said to me once ’’ it’s not where you live, but where you love’’. Home is a relaxing, enjoyable, place where you can survive. All homes should be warm because you can’t enjoy your stuff if you're cold. I think nothing is more relaxing than a quiet hot tub after a long day of skiing, playing in the snow, snowboarding, tobogganing, and snowshoeing. Home should be peaceful, if it’s not, then somebody could get really hurt or sick. This is what home means to me.
