Home Can Be Anything

Home could be anything. home could be a place where you feel safe. Or a place where you can live. But there are lots of other meanings to what a home means to other people and I would like to share what a home means to me. home is a place where you can do anything. You could spend time with your family. Or relax and play video games or maybe even start a giant pokemon card collection and store them all in your attic for a year but if it’s a safe place and you feel happy then you're at home. Another idea of what home means to me is if you have good people around you. You could live in a very cramped apartment, or in another country, or maybe you could live in a place that you know nothing about but as long as you're with people you're comfortable with like your family or friends then you're at home. A home doesn't have to be in a house. it can be on a basketball court or a football field or be with your friends but as long as you feel safe and comfortable you're at home That’s my idea of what a home is– a place where you feel safe and comfortable – A place with your family and friends – A place where you feel happy if it has all of those things then it’s a home. Many people don’t have homes. Many people don’t feel safe or comfortable. Many people don’t have friends or family. And many people aren't happy so be grateful for your home and appreciate the people around you. I am SO grateful I have a HOME!
