The Meaning of Home

For me home means different things. I have two homes, my moms and my dad’ s. I live with my dad but I still have two homes! Main idea: safe place for me is… Your comfort… Your space… Your relaxation… Your privacy… 1. Home is a good place to be when you’re sad, uncomfortable, or angry. you can choose a space to be like your bedroom, your safe place. A safe place is a good place to be, I want to be there most of the time. When there’s other emotions inside of me, I go to my bedroom, when I have those emotions in me to help me feel better. 2. Home is your safe place. It’s about love and Memories. with all your loved one’s around you You might not be yourself at school and in public, but you are yourself. you don’t let anyone put negative thoughts in your head. don’t even let them get in your head or let them shame you for who you are. 3. Your house or home doesn’t need to be modern or aesthetic, it’s just something to make you feel comfortable. home is family also spending time with your family and doing things you love. you look back at old videos and There is so many memories you don’t know captured in the videos. So, you say to yourself “I should connect more”. 4. It’s like when you have two homes. For me I go to my “real mom” every 2nd weekend and I get to spend time with my “real mom” and my little brother, Wolfgang. Home is where you can make your own home and you have positivity and comfort. You might look at your favorite youtubers and say to yourself “I wish I were them or they’re so lucky wish I had that!” They are so rich; I wish my family was just like them! well I wish my family was them but don’t put those thoughts in your head. You’re just lucky to have a family and money, your home doesn’t need to be perfect. you just need to make it feel like a home. Thank you for listening to my story!
