Sweet Home

As soon as I walk in I see the welcoming inside, I see its living room, couches, family, walls, and stairs. The warm gust of fresh air rushing into me. Feeling the presence of family keeps me going for the whole day. Talking, and laughter. Feeling the warm fluffy carpet under your feet, and the calming cold tiles. It makes me feel as safe as an ant in the ant nest. The fresh warm air in the house is also great! There is also the welcoming smell of light perfume. Whenever there is a warm cooked meal, the aroma makes me hungry. It’s like the food was made in a Michelin star restaurant! The perfect meal made at home is sinnigung. It's a filipino dish that my dad makes with love. The sour soup, tender meat, soft potato, it was like it was made on the streets of Philippines. The sound of family laughing is enough to keep me going. It was like we were at a comedy show. In conclusion, home makes me feel safe, I've had so many memories made at home, like birthdays and celebrations. It's a honor to even have a home to live in, because much people, adults and kids don't have anywhere to live. Our home protected us from the hot, cold, and many other things. This is why home is so important to me, and important to family.
