The Meaning of Home

Home isn’t just a building, but a museum filled with sentimental objects that hold special memories within a human’s memories and heart. The first day I met my baby sister, it wasn’t just a normal meeting, but the beginning of a sweet friendship. That day I was gifted 2 things: a sister and a responsibility. When I carried her in my arms, I never forgot the setting we were in, or even the blanket she held. Everywhere your eyes shift around your childhood home, you think of memories playing in your head and the safety and comfort it provides you. Home resonates a radiant specialty to people, whether it’s people you love and care about, or maybe home can be starting fresh and maybe a sign your safe away from danger. A famous quote “Money can’t buy happiness” is quite relevant and true to some. For some people, a house is just a building, a building that can be replaced with a new one, like how you can’t replace your loved ones or even use money to replace specific special items, this is why we need to cherish our time with our loved ones. Consistently, no matter how many ups or downs we experience, we will all still have a home, deep within.
