Home is everything

Home comes in different shapes and sizes like you! A home can be tall or short or can be bland or colourful. When I think of it, a home is a lot like a human, the experience of being away from home is like the feeling when your beloved mother is away at work. This feeling of longing and homesickness for both of these beings carries a unique set of emotional endearments. When I am home I can express myself, be true , be free. When I'm at home I can sing, dance, and play. When I'm home I can try new things. When I'm home I can have good or bad memories . When I am home I always have someone to talk to. When I am home there is always someone to support me. When I am home I always make the right decision. To me it doesn't matter how the house looks on the outside it can look creepy even maybe shady, but on the inside it can be colourful. It can be full of good memories. A home doesn't have to be in the perfect structure; it can be as compact as a cabin or it can be as spacious as a mansion. Coming home from school and smelling this amazing fragrance, already feels like home and every step I take it feels like Ii'm being greeted by a unique aroma of a loyal friend that never lives . Every step I take up the stairs startling memories hit me like a flood of emotions. Walking into my room and seeing my mom waiting at my door getting ready to give me a big hug makes me feel warm and fuzzy. That's why a home is better than a house because that's where my family is. Family is everything.
