This Town...

Home is a place where people feel welcome. Sometimes it’s hard to find home, because it can be many places. When my friends and family just can’t feel then self’s, a place where they call Home, is just a something that helps them bounce back. Home dosn’t even have to be a house, sometimes it’s a city, a town, a country, even a house too. When I go on a vacation and come back home, I take a deep breath in, and know without even thinking, this is my town, this is my people, this is my Home. I get that feeling it’s like I have one moment of glory all to myself, and I think if you try if you’ll feel it too. One day I might have to leave my home, and I know that it will be hard at first, but the memories that I’ll carry with me, will always stay, then I’ll make new l make new ones, maybe with my own family! But sometimes I have to remind myself I will walk among a lot of houses in my life, but only One Home, and that’s what home means to me. Places where I know that I’m welcome, a place where I’m with my Family, and I thank everyone because that’s where I’m now.
