The State of Mind of Home

Home, Not just a place, not just a feeling, but a state of mind. Some people’s state of mind for home is where their bed is. Some may say that “home is where the heart is,” but for me that feeling is different. It might not be much to some, to some it might be a lot. The difference is vast because some people have a house with mold and some have a house where it is safe. People say that a home is a feeling, but the only way to get a feeling is to have that state of mind, your feeling of home comes from a state of mind. Some people don’t have a house that is safe or secure, and some don't have a house at all. Some people's homes are not safe because they might always be looking over their shoulder. The feeling of home comes from a state of mind that you have. That state of mind could be that your house is clean or untidy. If your house is untidy you are most likely used to it and it makes you feel like you are at home. If your house is clean if it gets a bit dirty you would want to clean it because it is not what you are used to. Your home is unique to you, and home is a state of mind not just a feeling.
