When people think of home, they think of the things inside: TV’s, video games, phones and toys. Most of us have all of these things and of course we love playing with our possessions. But home isn’t just the things you can see. It's the smells in your house that make you feel loved and safe. The people in your house can make you feel loved and like you belong. The meaning of home can be a lot of different things to a lot of people, but for me the people who stayed with me from the beginning who have comforted me, loved me and believed in me through the hard times make up my home. All of the memories you make inside your home makes your home so very special. Home to me is also where you feel hope and joy where we can just be ourselves and feel what we are feeling. Home is where we can laugh, cry, be angry, and let our emotions run wild and if they ever do, we have people who can help us get through those tough emotions. Home can be a lot of things such as love, memories, and kindness. So this is what home means to me.
