The Reason Home is So Important

This is what home means to me. Home is the place where you live and grow. It's also a place where you live with people you love. My home is where I make connections throughout my life and memories. Also, as long as you have walls and a roof over top of your head you will always be safe. I am very fortunate to have a home that can provide heating, clean water and what I need because some people don't have that stuff, so I'm very fortunate. Also my home protects me from things outside of it. Home is where I have pets that I love and care for and when I'm having a bad day my pet is there for me. My home is where your stuff is and things that I play with. I am also very fortunate to have a warm, soft and cozy bed to sleep on. Home is where your background is. It's also a place where I make food with my family and eat. It's where I make so many emotions, some bad and some good. Home is where I learn from my mistakes and you grow from them. It’s where you have siblings that you love. I do chores even though it might be boring. It is helping out my family. Also, my family is what matters most. It is where sometimes I have a bad day but instead of my family pushing me away they come and see me. It's where I play games with my family. Home is where I celebrate traditions. I feel safe in my home because my family is there.
