Home

We all have a home that we live in and that we love. We have different families in different shapes and sizes because it does not matter what the feeling is inside. There are a lot of people who don’t have a home or they did have one but had to leave it. Things don’t always make a home family and happiness does. Our home is a place where we can be free and independent. We have lots of feelings like sadness and happiness. It is a place where you are surrounded by love from your family and familiar voices that makes you feel calm. There are a lot of memories in the walls of your homes where we have lived most of our life. Some of us have pets at our homes which act like a best friend and a good companion for playing. There are a lot of things at home that are really important to us like our favorite childhood toys or our electronics. In our home we know where we keep our things better than anyone. We should be grateful because we have a warm home, a roof over our head and healthy food on our table. There are many people who don’t even have that. We shouldn’t take advantage of the things that we have. In our homes we have different feelings and listeners who listen to all of you and keep your secret safe like a shield. When you are there you can see a lot of familiar things, a homely feeling and an aroma of the scent of your favorite foods. In my house I always get the smell of spices. You get different tastes in our homes. You might have moved from place to place. But the feeling of home never changes as long as your family or loved ones are there with you. For me home is a comfortable place where I am me. It is nice and warm. When I step into the room I feel a familiar aroma surrounding me. We should always be happy with what we have because there are people who don’t even have that. Our homes are different but the feelings are the same. Happiness is the most important thing that makes a happy home.
