At Home

At home you can feel safe and loved. At my home I can be myself. My home is more than just a house. To me, home is also my neighborhood, city, province, country, continent, and the whole world! I think it is important to have a home because everyone needs and deserves a place where they’re allowed to be themselves. I also think it is important to have a house so you have food to eat, water to drink, and shelter as well. Home could be any of the 5 senses. For example, at my home I can SEE my family gathered around you on the comfy couch on a movie night. At home I can HEAR the sound of relatives laughing loudly on holidays. At home I can FEEL warm blankets and soft pillows as I slowly drift off to sleep in my bed. At home I can TASTE the yummy homemade dinner while I sit around the table with your family. At home I can SMELL the good smells of cooking from the kitchen while I sit on the couch. This is what my home is to me. What is a home to you?
