Meaning of Home

What home means to me . Home does not mean to me a bedroom, kitchen, living room, and furniture. What home really means to me is joy, happiness, love, peace, butterflies, rainbows and the most important thing that home means to me is memories. It is like a shelter but home is a special place in the world and as I walk up the stairs to my front door, I feel loved by this house. When I enter I see my loving family and the house is spread by happiness. The family pictures on the wall are just so memorable. A praying room for God feels like I am so peaceful, and blessed. The hallway filled with flowers, butterflies and rainbows feels so dreamy and the rooms in my home are filled with kindness and happiness. Everybody loves their home, it does not matter if it is small or big because every home matters in our hearts. Whenever I play with my brother we feel safe and we are lucky that we don't live in the streets but we still make food for the homeless people. I sometimes cry because I feel bad for the homeless people but it's good to help homeless people because then God will be happy. I was talking about how to always be thankful for your homes and I am, but if I change homes I would miss my old home. I would get used to it, I would decorate my new home for events. The reason I think home is special is because there is happiness and joy. It's not always kind if you say this is a broken home because then there is not gonna be positivity in the home if it is an apartment or a shelter it's still a home to you.
