The Meaning of Home

To me, home means a lot, but a lot of people have smaller or no opinions about home because they do not have one but I think everyone should have one here's why. I think everyone should have a home because they need to feel safe and at ease at all times. I feel my home is important to me because the people I share it with make me feel loved and honored. A house can become a home in many ways that can be quite different. There are many things that can make a house a home but to me three examples stand out the most. Something that makes a house a home is the people you share it with because you can share it with friends, family or really just anyone but if they were not friends or family they will be or at least feel like one. A house can also become a home when it is made with love, care or even if it’s just decorated with the things you like most. My final example for how a house can be a home is if you fill it up with the things you love most like memories from stuff like baby pictures or pictures of fun activities. As I said there are many things that can make a house a home. There are tons of reasons why peoples homes are important to them but mine feel unique and special. First of all my room is important to me because it is where I sleep and where quite a bit of my memories are. My garage is another place that is special because it is where all of my sports stuff is. Also all of my sports stuff all has memories behind it. The final place that is important about my home to me is our backyard because we can use the stuff in our garage in the backyard and our trampoline is also in the backyard. Those three places are the things that make my home important and unique to me. In my opinion everyone should think that everyone deserves a home because they do and, I will tell you why they deserve it. I think everyone deserves a home because they should always feel safe and secure. When you feel safe and secure it means that you will not feel scared and uneasy at that time. Also everyone should just have a roof over their head at all times they feel so they feel nice and cozy. That is why I feel everyone deserves a home but you may have a different opinion. I think everyone should have a big open opinion on what home is because they have a home. You may also have important or large thoughts on what home is to you. Once again a house can become a home in many different ways like the people you share it with, the memories you have in certain things or even just your stuff from when you were a baby. If you agree that everyone should have a home then donate to your local habitat for humanity.
