Home is not just a shelter, it is a feeling. Where the feeling of joy and happiness rises through your soul. It is the place where you can just lie on your bed and play video games without anyone saying anything or judging you. It is the place where you can just let out all of your anger and sadness. It is also the place where you can truly be yourself. You can do weird dances and sing loudly without anyone judging you. It is the place where you build awesome relationships. It is the place where you make the best memories. Home is a place where you are free of judgement. It is the place where you come home from hockey and ask your mom, “What's for dinner?" She replies by saying "Broccoli, brussel sprouts and green beans.” I reply by sighing loudly. Then my dad comes out of nowhere and says, “We got sushi for dinner!” He puts a smile on my face when he says that. I smile even more when my mom says, “Yep, we are having sushi for dinner." Home is when we play a board game and my brother gets so upset he goes upstairs and slams the door to his room. Home is that one place filled with positive thoughts. It is where you destroy your brother and dad in a game of mini-hockey:l It is where you and your brother start wrestling and your dad has to intervene. Home is my safe, secure, cozy little abode.
