A Little Poem with a Big Meaning

Home is where you make memories and can relax at ease. Every second is filled with emotions, but the bad times are laughed at making it a delightful experience to look back on. Every day you come back to your Home while goals are made, and as you grow older more people come to call it Home. You start to structure a family and cherish your time with them getting happier each passing day. If you're having a bad day at work, or maybe even school just know when you get back Home all thoughts and bad feelings fade away faster then you know it. Because every single day you lie down on your bed and in the morning you feel better than ever and repeat it. For the rest of your life. As the time goes by the kids that you thought were small a few years ago start to graduate, you come back Home and celebrate. Until your kids make a place for themselves to call Home. You start to realize what life is all about, and think life is just astonishing. But don’t worry it doesn't end there, you still have your spouse and can still visit your little boy. You call your little boy and he tells you what wonderful times he’s had. When it’s time to say goodbye you say ‘I love you’ he says it back and you hang up you can’t stop yourself and shed a tear. You start to remember the sweet memories in this cozy little Home and you think maybe it’s not so bad to have this change.
