What Is Home To Me?

Explaining my thoughts about home. Many people think different things about the word '''home''. Many people think differently about home. It could be good, it could be bad. But home to me means somewhere I can trust and feel great. Home is a place to be loved and feel safe. The feeling of your family hugging you with love. Remember them comforting you, making you feel safe and loved. The feeling of your parents/guardians hugging you. Remember them comforting you, making you feel safe, loved and warm. Sometimes you don’t feel safe. If you don’t feel safe it’s really not a home it just makes it a house. Sometimes you do feel safe. Even if you feel safe you might not be safe, it's just your home that makes you feel safe. As long as the house is comfortable it’s a home. Comfort is what makes a house a home. You know what’s your home when you're comfortable. When you're at home you know you're comfortable when your family is there to cuddle with you. Design your home/room the way you want. If you know the inside of your home and where things are it’s not like a maze and that’s not amazing. Having siblings can be fun and can be bad .If you have siblings you can have a good time and you can have a bad time there are downsides and good sides of having siblings. You don’t need video games to have fun. (but for me I have A LOT of fun with video games) Video games are just a part of fun. For some people they don’t have fun at all playing video games but for other people they only play video games. Your family is the one carrying joy to your life. When your family shows love they are normally talking to you watching movies with you playing games with you cuddling with you and more. Love is a huge part of a home. The love effort you provide to your home makes it a wonderful place to live. Video games can be fun with family or friends. Just because I said that video games are a part of fun under some circumstances I'm wrong.. Home is a good place to be in because you know where you are, you know where things are. In conclusion a home is not a house a house is not a home homes are meant for you and your family to be in. Having no home is like a tree with no roots but being in a house is like a tree with the wrong roots. (credit to saidat for the tree thing)
