Meaning of Home

The Meaning of home is a truth that unfolds in all of us. A place that is filled with laughter that fills the air wherever I go. It's the place where all is kept, the place that has been with me if I was sad, mad or excited. Our home has been with us Through all our ups and downs it has been there. It has been there like nobody else has, It’s there to smell the wonderful recipes passed on and soon will have its secrets open up to me. Home has its different places, different settings that change from calming to extreme, mundane to exciting. Different times and different things always, awards and graduations don't just give us a feeling of accomplishment but also pride. Through the toughest of snow storms to the slightest cold breeze, My family stands resilient no matter what people say or do and we may not be the perfect family but that's what makes it special. Our family is a pillar of hope and we love who we are no matter what people say, if we are together there is nobody else to stand in our way. Each day something special walks our way whether my dad, sister, mom or even little brother made so we all wear a smile on our face, gray days can turn colorful and full of light no matter what we do the slightest conversation could turn into disco parties. What does home mean to you? It's a very important thing in our life, everything I have just said scratches the surface of the water. Words can not describe how much my home means to me. I wonder if homes and families mean the same to us in the future as they do to me in the present.
