The meaning of home

Home can mean a lot to different people with different homes. It could be a happy place, an exciting place, an annoying place, it could mean anything to anybody. To me home is a happy, safe and fun place with lots of love. And to others a safe but stressful and sad place. So as you can see, home can mean a lot to people, and sometimes, you do not know what they could be going through. My home is my habitat, my safe place and my family's place. My home is my habitat, my habitat is where I live, what gives me shelter and what keeps me safe. It is my home. It doesn't always mean a house, it might not always mean an apartment or a cottage, it is where you live, it is where you feel safe, it is where you rest, it is your habitat , it is where your home is. Wherever you live, whatever keeps you alive, is your home. Your home is your habitat, your safe place , wherever you live is your habitat , your habitat is your home. Whenever you feel that you can live, wherever you feel safe, and wherever you feel that your family can live, is your home. My safe place, my home, those two words have a lot in common. My safe place is safe, my home is safe. My safe place is my home, house is my safe place because that's where my family lives . I love my family, they keep me safe, and so does my safe place, my home. My home is where all my safe stuff is like my house, my family, my dog , my friends, my habitat. So as you can see, home means a lot to me, and probably you too. Home means a lot to everyone, and all these things mean a lot to me, but the thing that means most to me is my family. Now family is a big thing in my home. We have a big family. They might not live in my house, but they live in my Family. And my family lives at home . The reason why we called their house home is because we used to live away from them and every time we visited we would call it home. So now if you didn't before know what home means not just to you but me and everybody else. Your home could be your habitat , your safe place , your place where you feel loved, a place where you feel comfortable, a place that you love, a place that you think is fun, anything that's home. So now you know home isn't just your house it isn't just a thing, it's a place oh, it's both a tangible and intangible thing. So home is a place that you should feel safe, should feel comfortable and should feel loved. That's home.
