The meaning of my "Home"

The meaning of my “HOME” My home is my life because I was raised in that place and almost spent my whole lifetime in that place. My home is where I feel safe and secure. A “house” is just a shelter. My home is a place that you would love. It has all good memories.No matter where, even if you move out, you can still make great memories in a new home. Mine is one of the best places I've ever been! A person’s most personal belongings are kept in a home and it's where a person feels safe and accepted and we are blessed and thankful to my parents that we have a roof on top of our heads because some people live on the streets and it can be hard living on the streets. Also I actually have two homes. Canada and the Philippines and I will be telling you the difference between my two homes! In the Philippines it is really hot. My relatives lived very close together, so I could just walk there. Almost everyday we played with all the kids in the village. We ran and played different types of games like tag and hide ‘n seek! In Canada, I couldn't really meet my friends because they would live too far away, and the only way I hang out with my friends is when I go to school. Home is not a place. It’s a feeling.
