My Home is Who I Am

Home is not a place or a shelter, it’s a feeling. Home varies across cultures and countries around the world. However, for some people home means more than a just some kind of material or physical concept where you live in. Home means a place where I feel safe where I always want to comeback. To me home is everything. It's like fresh air in the atmosphere where I breath to feel relaxed and filled with energy for a new day. Home is where my sadness or anger seems to melt away like an ice cube and where the smile on my face grows fast. Home is like sweet candy that makes me feel at the top of the peak of happiness, and even when I collapse on the floor for bad days I always get up. Home is like a river flowing into the bright yellow sand in the middle of the steaming hot desert, it makes me feel refreshed with power. My home is essential component in my life and helps me to become who I am. It gives me modeling values such as: be honest, kindness and respect others, knowing how to solve problems, overcome my fears. I feel confident, secure and free from judgments, I am not afraid from making mistakes, I always grow from them. No matter where I go, I will take all my habits with me to my new home that I will create. Home is a place I can fantasize and dream of anything I would like, and it helps me to make them come true. My home makes me believe everything is possible regardless of where I am. Home forms love and peace in my soul.
