The Meaning of Home

The Meaning of Home By Anna 4B Some say home is amazing but, is it for others? Can a home have bad memories? Well yes, it can. But My home is a safe place. A place where memories are made by a simple photo! Home can even just be a place for people to get along. And for you, a place where your problems cannot be shared. Home is kindness, it shows it. At home many are kind. Many clean after themself. Many ask for permission but most importantly, home builds friendships, creates relationships, and fixes problems. Home is a plant in our hearts. Once grown, it grows more. Memories are home, a simple drawing. Or even a decoration, creates memories that last. Things that stay even in the afterlife. Maybe a feeling can shed a tear. A visit can make you breakdown. But just because you are 20 now. Doesn't mean you can see an old fellow! Family! How could I forget! Family is one of the closest people/person you can talk to! Parents work everyday just to come home and see a smile on your face. They don't want money. They just want happy kids. Family is important, it’s one thing you’ve always had whether it was a foster family, divorced family, or genetic family. They were always there. Lastly, home is a safe place, a comfy place. A place where honesty is excellent. No one will share private information. Privacy is important, home shares that privacy with you. Home is safe from danger. Home can keep a secret. At the end though, I hope you found your safe spot here. Home may have bad thoughts, rude times. But in the world, home is forever. May you find the meaning of home. Thank you habitat for humanity.
