What Home Means to Me

Google describes home as “the place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or a household”. But it's so much more than that. Home is more than a noun, a place or an address. Home is about memories, feelings, feelings such as safe, loved, secure,comfortable, and more. These feelings don't have a price tag. Nor do they happen to everyone. Sometimes when I'm at a friend's house or on vacation. All I want is to be at home. And I don't want to leave just because my home has air conditioning or because it has a TV. I want to be home with my family because that's where I can be myself, that's where I feel all those wonderful emotions. We all should be grateful for that home feeling for some cant experience it. A house and a home are very different everyone deserves a home.
