The Meaning of Home

Home is not dry walls and shingles but a feeling. One of those feelings is familiar or knowing the place and knowing that place can give you a certain sense of security.It can also mean that when you walk it you feel relief and as though bad feelings can't touch you.Familier can also mean comfort which can make you again feel safe.Speaking of safety lets move over to security. Security is another one of those feelings and feeling safe is very important inside a home.Safety ,means that you feel protected from everything else happening.This also ties in with familiar because they can both make you feel safe and protected.Saftey also makes you feel like nobody can hurt you there.Safety is much more than a security system. Love is a feeling that can be in homes but not all.The fact that some people don't have love in their homes makes me sad because it can make people feel insecure about themselves because they don't have somebody to be there for them.Love can mean family or friends giving you support through everything,Love can be just having a family member to be with and that they care for you all of the time. Home is not a structure but a feeling and those feeling must be treasured.
