The Three Meanings

The meaning of home no one quite knows because everyone’s home is different, There are three things that can make anywhere feel like home if you really think about it. The first is the emotions you feel like happiness, joy and love. Sometimes those aren’t the only feelings. You could feel sad, angry, maybe even depressed. Just know that if you feel small, do something that makes you feel at home. The second thing is do something that makes you happy like spend time with family or write a story. Don’t be boring. Do something you like. The last and most important thing is be grateful for what you have, Happiness is in your heart so be happy and love everyone around you even if they’re rude, Forgive them if you can. So don’t forget that home’s not only a place with four walls and a roof. Is not where you always need a car to drive around in, walk or ride a bike, bake cookies but not in your oven, make an oven outside. Sleep outside for a night without a tent to help yourself realize you’re lucky, Some people out there in the world don’t have warm heated homes, Some people don’t have oven’s, beds or half the stuff you have but still feel happy and safe with their families all cuddled up as a family to keep warm at night. In my opinion, home is where the heart is, your family ,friends, even your animals, are a part of it. If they love you and you love them. It's a place where you feel welcome, safe and loved. That’s what home is.
