What home means to me.

Did you know that there are 13.82 million houses around Canada? Home is a shelter where animals and people live. They live there to enjoy whatever they want to enjoy. But that's not to everyone. Home can be thought of differently to different people. They can think of home as a place where they feel most comfortable or, they could also think of it as somewhere that is just a boring place that just takes up space. In this writing, I will be explaining what home means to me! For me, home is a thing that I wouldn’t be able to live without. The reason why I adore my house is because on my first day of school, I missed the bus that me and my sister were supposed to ride on, and I was nervous for some reason. So, we had to walk all the way home and when we got there, I suddenly felt safe again. I think that home is a place to feel safe, welcomed and however you want to feel. Home also helps me calm down my stress, and if I was in a bad mood, coming home would change everything back to a fresh new start. For example, if I had some trouble with my friend, all the smell of the delicious food and my dog's fluffy fur makes me feel happy once again . I believe that home is the key to my happiness. Finally, Home is a place where I can share my experiences and feelings with my family. At home, I can talk to them about my secrets that are difficult to tell everyone and ask for advice. In other words, home is a treasure box that stores our stories. I think that regardless of whether people are poor or not, they deserve such a sweet home. It doesn’t have to be big, the Tv is newest, or has a nice sofa. Therefore, I think that if we can relax and share emotions with loved ones, it can be our home anywhere.
