Home

The word home to me means safety, warmth, and laughter. It also means caring, company, entertainment, and sharing. If you look up the definition of the home it would come out to be, a Home is a permanent place where one lives. Nevertheless, the definition of a home goes much beyond its visible description. Home to me is the best, usually, I do not have to be stressed or unhappy. For the families who live in the smallest village to the most crowded city, a house or apartment is more than just a simple building, for those who live there, it’s home. What I love most about my home is who I share it with. I always have good times at my house and if we do not, we make up for it. Every single area of my home has a history for me as I learned there how to walk, played games in front of the park behind the shady trees. And I am lucky to have good parents, unfortunately, I do not have a good brother. But even if Simon is mean we still have good times. There is nothing more important than a good, safe, secure home. A home is a place you grow up wanting to leave and grow old wanting to get back to it. Home is where I was raised. It is the people who wait for me to get home. Home can vary from people, culture, and even for each of them that word can change over the years. Home does not look the same for all the people in the world, but what is the same in all cultures is that home means more than the house where you live. home is a place that makes you nostalgic if you are gone for long. Home is a place where you can be yourself. Home is a place where you can be yourself. I don’t need to go back to the house I grew up in to feel at home, I have memories and experiences that I can take with me anywhere. Each one of us has a place which brings back good memories, is the symbol of comfort and wellness, revokes memories related to music, objects, colors, people. There are also (sorry for this being out of the blue) several reasons for being homesick and culture shock is one of them. some students often miss every single object at their home. and if home means abuse, sadness, and judgment then I must say sorry. All the people who do not care about people who do not have a home, food, or water. The people who do not know about Home is considered as a place where you were brought up, which is related to the childhood memories, toys, favorite dishes, and traditions. Even music and flavors may make you think about this kind of home. These are the things that any person may miss when he is away from home for educational reasons. the homeless. And people still think home is an object, they tell them it is not. Tell them it is where you feel safe, happy, and loved. It surrounds you with a community that will always be there for you. It is school, or it could be a friend's house, but either way home could be anywhere. If this does not spread awareness, then I must say sorry to all the people who I let down.
