The meaning of home

I think home is a lot of different things. For example, to me the meaning of home is sports, friends and family and the outdoors. That is my life. This is my example of the meaning of home home. I love soccer, hockey and running, they are basically my life. I play sports 3 to 6 times a week. I love how competitive they are and I like seeing my friends. I like working hard and exercising. Exercising will help me later in my life and at this very moment it still helps. I like being in shape because that helps me with my track and field, soccer, hockey and other life skills. My brother was the one that got me into sports. I can not really remember the stories because I was two years old. My parents tell me stories about it though. My brother says it did not happen because he is too inbarest to emit it. He has had a lot of injuries though so he doesn't play sports with me anymore. Another thing home means to me is friends and family. Sometimes when I am sad I talk to my friends or my family. Because they make me happy. Every now and then my family and family friends hang out. We are super close so I consider them my aunts and uncles. I love hanging out with them cause I always laugh and have a good time. But unfortunately we could not hang out this christmas cause my uncle had covid. But we made up the time we lost by having a late christmas party. The last thing home means to me is the outdoors. I love the outdoors. In the summer I go outdoors and play soccer in my front yard. My parents surprised me a couple of years ago on my birthday with 2 soccer nets outside. We have renovated it since then. When me and my friends play hide and seek tag outdoors, I love climbing trees. Hide and seek tag is one of my favorite summer activities with friends. In the winter I dont go outside as much because we take the soccer nets inside and it is too cold to ride my bike and play tag with my friends. But when it snows I love the outdoors so much. Yesterday me and my whole family (even my dog) except for my brother went out and played in the snow. We only went out for around an hour, but it was the most fun I have had all year. Home is something amazing, I love my home. My home might not be the same as your home. But to me when I need a break from reality I talk to family or friends or play outdoors or play sports. Cause that's what calms me down.
