The Meaning of Home

The meaning of home is a trusting place full of memories and imagination. Even though conflicts happen sometimes, we know our family loves us so much. I feel so loved when I step into my home. I know that if I have to say something that’s personal my home is the safe place to say it and I don't have to worry about it anymore. My favourite thing in my home is my stuffed animal that I had since I was a baby and her name is Mrs. Cuddle Cakes. I get 4 senses activated when I see her. The four senses are feel, see, hear, and smell. I feel nostalgic when I see her. I see Mrs. Cuddle Cakes looking at me in an ok condition. I hear my baby voice being so excited to get her for the first time. I smell my baby scent. The meaning of home means a lot of things like family, positivity, imagination, etc. But the way I see it is H stands for hope O stands for optimism M stands for memories E stands for (good) Energy Our homes are places where our emotions can lie. Now I can finally see the difference in a house and a home, and I hope you have enjoyed reading my project. Thank you so much. Have a good rest of your day in your home.
