The Meaning of Home

For me home is family no matter where we live. A home is very different from a house. A house may be made of cement or wood but a home is made from family. But if I didn't have a family it wouldn't really feel like home to me. Home is kind of that feeling you feel with your family. In my home we use an incense which is made from oil and herbs and it makes me feel like I'm back in India with my whole family. That's a feeling I always remember whenever I smell that fragrance. That's what reminds me of home when I come back from school. Home is also having fun with your family, sometimes laughing, sometimes playing around,and helping each other in the hard times. Like when we all have dinner together at the end of the day,or when we all watch a movie together as a family. To me a home is very important,because it's all about my family and everybody's home is different from others. To me,no matter where I am,my family is always with me in my heart and I never feel alone or lonely. My family does a lot for me. They make me really happy and that's a feeling that I feel that makes us family and all these feelings feel like home.Thats what the meaning of home is for me.
