Home Isn't Just a Place, It's a Mindset

Home Isn't Just a Place, It's a Mindset Home is like the flame used to light a candle, It brightens your mood. This is what home means to me. You can feel comfortable in your home. You can express who you are, and you don't have to be ashamed of it. This is what home means to me. You know that at the end of the day, you can go home to your warm, cozy house. You can feel the cold wooden floors on your feet. You can have someone to talk about your problems with, and they will make you feel warm inside, and out. This is what home means to me. You can smell the delightful food your parents cooked for you to enjoy, you can smell your dog's bad breath as they welcome you back home. This is what home means to me. When you wake up in the morning, ready to start the day You can feel the soft mattress of your bed, and the soft pillow you lay your head on at night. You can hear the birds chirping outside your window. This is what home means to me. Home isn't about the place, it's about who you share it with. The people in your home care about you, and you care about them. The people in your home are always going to be there for you when you need them. You can tell them your problems. You can cry without shame or indignity. This is what home means to me.
