Home, the Place Where the Memories are.

You might think a house is a home. What if I tell you, it's not? Let me explain. What most families do is, when their kids turn 18, they can move out into a house, you might be thinking that it's fine and you can just make new memories. Well, it's fine if you think that, but you will realize these 5 things. When you wake up your parents won't greet you, “good morning", and say your favorite food has been made, no, you must wake up feeling lonely and you must cook your favorite food. Also, while you're eating you hear silence, you look around your new house and don't see anything you did fun in it. I know it's a very lonely and depressing place. Now introducing my home. Every day when I wake up, I see my parents greeting me “good morning” and giving me a warm hug that feels like the sunshine through me. Then if my parents are in a good mood, they give me my favorite breakfast. My favorite breakfast is croissant with Nutella, the flavors explode in my mouth. If you microwave the croissant and put Nutella in, it tastes like a piece of heaven. Then when I'm eating my favorite breakfast, I hear my parents talking about who to bring to Canada next and I see my grandma crocheting, and when I look around my home, I imagine the fun I have had in my home. To me home is a safe place where your loved ones are. Home is the place where the memories are.
