My meaning of home

Home is not a place with four walls and a roof it’s a feeling you get, you can feel it when your with a preson or watching your favroite show, especially with family. I guess you can say its inner peace or love of just safety. The feeling when you don’t have it when it slips out of your fingers in a peace of time. You are scared your afraid and in that moment all you want to do or have is awarness that you’re safe. Youre home. Because even the thought of home is safe, cozy, loving. A lot of people would describe home as a place or thing. But to me its a feeling. Also In my family. No one wants to be alone especially when you’ve spend time with people who love and support and appreciate you,and I couldn't live without them. They're my whole world. You could say they’re my home. The word home can mean shelter, but if you dig deeper it actually means to be safe and with the people you love. Everyone in the world deserves that. People need to know they’re safe they need to know that even when the time is dark there is always a place of light they can go back to. Its like you, yourself in a game you usually have teammates and your adrenaline pumpin,. your bloods boiling your excited and in that moment the world just disappears out of mind and out of space and it’s just you and your floating, flying! Because you care. Maybe you haven’t felt that exact feeling but in some way or another you’ve felt like that. And when the walls of your home structure crumbleyou find what the gem of your house is the heart of the whole operation,the thing that keeps people moving. Love. And if you dont have it scratch that everyone has it that’s how i know everyone deserves a home? No, needs a home.
