The Meaning Of Home

The meaning of home is a place of chatter and the smell of food cooking on the stove. Home is where we’ve had memories, fights and achievements. Home isn’t a place, it’s a comfort zone. Home is family, friends and community. Home is everything. Home is everywhere. Home is everyone. Home isn’t just four walls and a roof. Home creates memories, good ones and bad ones. Home is where we find ourselves and others. Home is where we learn, where we play, and where we eat. Home is where our heart is. We take home for granted, and yet not everyone has one. We must value our home as much as possible since life is short. Home is not a place. It is a feeling. The true meaning of home is abstract. Home is not boring. Homes are not there to be destroyed, they're there because people need homes to stay safe and to be warm and cozy. Home is like an empty backpack, full of emptiness but full of potential, so don’t take it for granted, because some people might need it more than you do.
