This is Home

Home. The house I share with my family. The place where I can freely feel emotions. Where I can enjoy the company of my family. The place I can feel safe and warm. Where I can sit at the dinner table surrounded by my family. Where so many memories have been made and shared. Family Safety Warmth Home. The town I live in. The place where I can make and see friends. The friends who will last a lifetime. Where I go to school to learn about all the lovely things the world has to offer. The neighborhood where kids run wildly in the parks with no fears whatsoever. The place that I have watched grow alongside me. Friends School Memories Home. The province that I live in. Where I can go to many places. Where much of my food is grown. The food that is made by farmers who work hard all year long. The place where all kinds of family members live and come together. The place where everyone can feel like family. Where we can be happy no matter what happens. Food Family Happiness Home. The country where I am free. The place where good happens, and where bad happens too. The place where I always feel safe. Where wars have been fought for me to feel this peace. The place that I share with millions. People who I may never meet but will still respect. The place that my life has happened in. Where so many people have come into my life. People who I would have never met. Free Safe Respect Home. The place I will always love. The place I am thankful for. Love Gratefulness Home.
