The meaning of home to me

For me home means being loved. It is a place you go to after school, activities, or visiting your grandparents. If home could be anything, it would be the feeling of safety or acceptance. That's for me atleast. If I could draw what home feels like it would be all bright colors, maybe some soft ones here and there, and I would try to make it feel happy. In my home, I have a quiet room where I can work, draw, and read. It makes me happy to think I have somewhere to go when I get upset. If you could smell what your home smells like, mine would be the scent of sugar cookies and fresh muffins. If it could be something you can touch, for me it would be the feeling of a soft blanket, plushie, or pillow. If it could be a taste, I would taste pasta, or food i like. If it could be a sound it would be the sound of me and my sister talking, or me calling my friends. For all the people without a safe place to live, I hope that they can find a safe place to live and make friends. I am thankful that Habitat for Humanity is helping people get homes that are safe to live in like mine, and many others. I pray for their safety and for others like them as well.
