What is a Home?

Before I start, you might be expecting me to say that a home is family and friends and neighbors and goody goodness but no. First I want you to think, where is your home? What is your home? You might be thinking “what is this person talking about! My home is my house duh!” To be honest you’re right! Your house is your home and you know why? Because it’s somewhere you feel is safe! It’s somewhere that has your most precious memories! (Holidays, culture, parties. Even just going to the park may be a precious memory!) And that home can be anywhere! It can be at the park, the beach, in your house, and even in a dumpster if you call that a home! Again, you might be thinking “ Ok I officially give this guy a reward for being the craziest dude on the planet. This guy is crazy! He went from a beach, all the way to a dumpster!” Ok ok ok, this might be hard to understand (exaggerating part) which is why I came up with the most perfect example in the entire universe to help you understand. In the night, I drink my milk. Yes I drink my milk, but there are some steps to it. First I get a glass. Then, I get my milk from the fridge, I add chocolate powder and sugar, and give it a few stirs and voila! I got myself some milk. Now let me explain what the example really was. The glass is the base and the ingredients are what really make it unique. Just like love, care and comfort make a house a real home. After reading this I hope you understand what a home is. P.S. I would write more but there's a 300 word limit!
