The Meaning Of Home To Me

A home is a place filled with love. At home, we take care of each other and be kind and loving to each other. Families love each other and also support each other in a nice manner. It is a place where you get all the love from your family and stay happy forever. You get to play games with your loved ones which is another reason that makes you happy. A home is where you’re cozy like in your bed. You have a soft and thick blanket on you, and a nice pillow that suits you well, and a soft bed to sleep with warmth in the winter. Or, you get to sit on your comfortable and bouncy sofa, watching television, and having fun. A home is a place where you get to eat your delicious healthy food with a very nice aroma around the house. You get to eat healthy food to be active and do the things you need to do for the rest of the day. You will feel full with no hunger at all and be happy that you get food that has been spent with money. A home is a place that protects you and your heart from outside threats and bad people who aren't kind to you. You feel protected in all rooms, including your own room, where you can do your favourite activities or simply do homework with a decent sound of music. A home is where your community is. You can go riding your bicycle around the community or simply have a restful day at your lawn, sitting where the sun shines happily. It’s where you get to meet friends and go and play with them at their house or at the community. You have a community center, with lots of fun activities you can do in your free, spare time. You have a school, where you learn new things and listen to what your teachers say. You get to go to places in your city and explore new places you haven’t seen before. You get to see many people with different cultures from around the world who can be helpful and kind to you and everyone. As you see, these all mean home to me and that’s where I feel protected and happy. A home is not just a building made out of wood and wires, but a place filled with love, laughter, joy, and a belly full of food.
