What You Call Home

Your home might be a huge mansion. it might be a small bungalow, a nice picket fence house, a van, possibly a trailer, or maybe you might not have a home to live in, it all depends on whatever you call home. But a home is what has the most memories or has what you call family. Nobody can judge you. Your home may not be perfect because it will always be yours. Your home doesn’t have to be that big home, a small home or anything. Size doesn't matter, you can choose what matters. A house is a cold dark place that makes you feel uncomfortable, like it's someone else's home. But a home is warm, bright, comfortable and the thought of leaving makes you sick. Your family and the memories makes a house turn into your home. You might have moved in the past or recently, so it takes a while to call the house a home. You might share a room with your sibling, but your best memories might come from that very room. You might have found out you're getting a sibling in that very home and that might be how it became home to you. Maybe you moved to a new town in a new neighbourhood, you didn't know anyone and you made your closest friends in that house and it became your home. Your home is where you feel safe, your home might be where you had your worst memories or the best. It's where your family and you feel comfortable, and safe, not just you, your whole family. You might not have a home, you might live in an orphanage but you still might call that home. I hope you love where you live because everyone wants to feel safe.
