What is home?

What is home? What is home? Home is a place of comfort, a place where you can be yourself, and not worry about what others think. Home doesn't only mean the house you live in, home is also your community. A community of its own beliefs, cultures, and benefits; a community we can call our home. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of a community is teamwork, a community that works together, stays together. Sometimes, even the smallest actions can put a smile on someone's face, and one smile can go a long way. Think of it as a ripple effect. It can change a person’s mood, making them feel happy, even on the darkest of days. This is where confort comes into play, a smile can’t always do all the work in these cases. You need the comfort from your cherished, loved ones to help get you through the problems that show up in life. Let’s take Covid for an example, so many people have been working together, helping each other out, for example; picking up groceries for someone who is in isolation. Sure, you will have doubts along the way in this journey we call life, but you have to remember, your friends will be there for you, your family will be there for you. All of this together, your loving home will be there for you. Written by, Cameron Conley Grade 6 Mrs. Doucet’s class St. Ann Catholic Elementary School Fenwick Ont.
