A House is Not a Home

A House is not a Home Home, home can mean many things to people, but we all care about it and at the end of the day, home is where we want to go. Home is more than just a physical structure. It is a place of comfort, safety, and belonging. It is where we go to find peace from the world outside, to be ourselves, and to connect with the people we love. Home is where we create memories that last a lifetime, and where we find joy in the little things. For many of us, home is a place we take for granted. We come and go as we want, never truly appreciating the comfort it provides. It's only when we are away from home, whether it be for travel, work, or other reasons, that we realise just how much it means to us. Home is a place where we feel safe and secure. It's where we can let down our guard, and be our true selves. A home is also a place of connection. It's where we build relationships with our families, friends, and neighbours. Eventually, home is where our heart is. It's where we feel most at ease and most loved. In a world that feels chaotic and uncertain, home provides us with a sense of belonging. In conclusion, the meaning of home is complex and multi-faced, but at its core, it's about finding a place where we can be ourselves, feel safe and secure, and connect with the people we love. Home is where our heart is, and no matter where life takes us, it's where we will always find our way back. By- Hareem Jabbar
