A Way Home

A way home A question I will always ask myself, what is home? Home to me means a place I can feel comfortable, and always safe, but most importantly I can be myself, being myself around people is something I usually find hard because there will be people that judge me and I can’t make everyone happy. But when I'm around animals all of that goes away and I feel like there is nothing in the world I should be worrying about, God created animals to show humans that actions are better than words, animals can’t talk to us, but they can show us by their actions what they are trying to say, animals are a way of communication between God and earth and they just make me feels safe because even though they don’t understand me they just know me and they know how I feel without me having to explain. Sometimes I believe life has no sense at all and I ask myself why should I exist any longer but I remember God created me for a reason, a reason that I might not understand right now but God will guide me through it and he will send me signs through home, and home is being close to animals because animals just make me feel safe and comfortable, is a way to just relax and stop thinking about my future and my life problems for once. Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” This verse talks about how animals make the world a better place.
