What home means to me.

Home is where the heart is. Home is more than just a physical space, it's a place where I feel safe, loved, and comfortable. It's where I can truly be myself and create lasting memories with my loved ones. Home is a place a can express myself, whether it's sleeping, cooking a small meal in the kitchen, or simply enjoying the company of family and friends. Home is where I help my relatives and cook meals for them, it's my happy place which I have no problem with. Home is also a reflection of who I am. It's filled with personal touches and cherished mementos that tell the story of my life. From family photos on the walls collected from travels, these little treasures make my home uniquely mine. But home is not just about the physical space, it's about the people who fill it. Home is where I can laugh, cry, and share my deepest secrets with those I love. It's where I can be vulnerable and supported, knowing that I am surrounded by people who care about me. Moreover, home is a place of growth and learning. It's where I can pursue my passions, explore new hobbies, challenge myself, taking risks and opportunities, and making myself work extremely hard to make the best version of myself. Ultimately, home is a feeling. It's the warmth that fills my heart when I walk through the door. It's the sense of belonging and acceptance that I experience every day. It's the love and connection that make me feel truly at home, no matter where I am in the world.
