What Home Means to Me

To me , home means many things. It could mean relaxation , a place to unwind and reflect on the events of the day I’ve powered through, but now that I’m home , that’s all in the past. It’s a place where all worries and problems fade to dust. A place where loved ones show me how to catch any curveball life throws in my direction. It’s a place of appreciation. It’s where I appreciate the meal my mom poured her time into making instead of doing something to accommodate her interests after a long day of working hard for everyone else's needs. Where I appreciate the roof over my head and the bed under my back , where I have warmth , comfort , and a safe place to sleep. Home is seeing my family . Sitting at the supper table discussing our problems and helping each other find solutions to said problems. Even my two cats are family members who deserve to be loved.
