The Home Experience

Home is a place I can experience a deep feeling of safety and relieve, or figure out problems I currently have in life. Though home is a good feeling usually, in some ways I can find home scary because if the memories I’ve had in some spaces such as the basement, I feel terrified to enter because some of the times I did my mind played tricks on me and it felt like I heard things talking while I exited the basement or the nightmares I’ve had about it, but for instance when I’m in someone else’s home there’s no feelings of memories for me, so it doesn't really matter where I go even somewhere dark. Home is a space where I envision potential for a lot of activities and interesting moments to be had, but having a familiar home also houses bad memories making you act differently, and sometimes that changes you permanently as a person. But that's what life's about isn’t it? In conclusion, a home can bring feelings of happiness or relaxation but can also change you and make you act in unusual ways.
