This is What Home Means to Me

Home is where I can say what I want and not be judged by other people at school. Home means more to me at these times. Home can mean many things to many people. For some people home can be an old apartment or home can be a big or small house. Home can be in an old street, it can be in a small town or your home can be around the corner. Your home can be made out of old cracked bricks and broken glass. Your house can be made out of sticks and stone in the forest but home is not about the looks and how big or how small it is. It's about the memories, like when you wake up on christmas morning or your little sister takes her first step. Home is a places to think of the good and bad memories Home is not about the looks and how clean or how messy, it's about making you feel safe and to be warm, comforted by your loved ones, a place to feel you are always welcome to be. My home feels like a nest high up in a tree and me and my family are the birds getting ready to hibernate in a warm and welcoming nest for the winter. Home feels like a heartwarming place to see your loving family. Other people's houses may be more fancier than others or other people’s houses could have more stuff filling their houses but that's not what makes a house feel like a home the people in the house makes it a home. Your home can and will always be open for everyone to feel welcome. So over all that is what my wonderful perfect home
