What is home?

What is home? If one looks in a dictionary the answer would come out to be, “The place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or household.” However, for anyone who has had an actual home, they would know that such a term goes much beyond its concrete description. It is an impassioned aspect filled with values and foundation of nurturing. A home is not just an abode built to live in; in fact, that is just a definition of a house. Home is a place where one not only feels comfortable, but a place they look forward to opportunely live in every day. A home is built not by bricks or wood, but with the bond of family. A home is a place that reminds a person of countless memories.Home is also a place to have fun.Also when the cold days come home is a place to snuggle up with a cup of hot chocolate.Home is more then a place it is a place to share your happiness your toys and some time when you are sad you share your sadness and grief to your family so they can help you feel better.That is what home means to me.
