My meaning of home

Home has a few different meanings. It depends on what way you picture it. Some people think of home as a place to watch television and Facetime your friends while eating chips and popcorn. Others think it is a place to work from home while telling your kids to quiet down. I have a different opinion of what home is. I think home is not just a place for warmth, it is a place for so much more. It’s a place where you can feel safe, where you can say or do anything without being judged. Where you can feel comfortable talking about your problems and your worries. A home is where there will be somebody always there to support you, and to help pick you up when you're feeling down. A home is where you can always smile, laugh, and cry, and there will always be someone to do all of those things with you. One big reason why home is so important is because your family is there. There to listen to you talk about your memories, but also there to help you make them. Your family will cook for you, and tuck you in bed. Wherever your home is, Your family will always be in it. People will always take their homes for granted until they are gone. Which is really disappointing because people should be so grateful. The biggest meaning of home to me is love. All homes have love in them and it is what makes them special. This is my meaning of home.
