The Reason Home is Special

Home is not a place just for me; It’s a place for everyone. It’s not the size or shape that counts, it's the love that’s in it. Big or small families, it doesn’t matter. Divorced parents or not, that’s okay. I won’t judge. The house you guys grew up in with your family will always be your home even if you’re far away from it or you just moved houses. The memories you shared in the house will never go away. The walls may be different, the windows may not be the same anymore, the kitchen won’t be the same as how it was before but know that no matter what, the times you shared there will always be the same. And no matter how many times you’re sad, anxious, or even mad, home is a place to share your feelings, questions and even responsibilities. Just know the warm embrace and the unconditional love from your family will never ever change. They'll love you no matter what, during the tough times and fun times they’ll be there for you. And that’s what home means to me, family is like a home- no matter what. Even if new people join, it’s still a family. That is why I wrote this to tell people that no matter what, it’s going to be okay. I also want to give people the chance of a place to stay by donating 10 dollars by my entry.
