What is home to me?

Having a home to me means always having an enjoyable, safe retreat from all the gray in the world. Although there may be chaos, problems, and even just bad days happening inside, out, and around my home, that doesn’t change its importance and overall impact. It’s very hard to feel at home in a place you’re uncomfortable in. I love my bedroom, my house, my town, and lots of other places, things, and feelings I get from each of them. That’s what makes them feel like home to me. If you’re somewhere you’re uncomfortable, at home, or you just don’t like, it’s up to you to add some pizazz. Move around a bit, interact with more people, and find the positive in any situation. Some factors that make a place feel like home to me are a comfortable and expressive environment, vibrant colors, personality, and people. Having people in a home is important to me. The reason for that is if there’s no one to share memories with, or no one to talk to, I would feel lonely. I think anyone would. Last but not least, a home to me feels safe. In conclusion, home to me is a vibrant, comfortable, and safe place with lots of personality and people. My house is home to me.
