What I think the Meaning of Home is

The meaning of home is when you come home after a trip to a different country or friend's house and you have a thought that no ones gonna be there but in reality your parents and siblings are waiting there so you could be dumbfounded and feel appreciated. You could sleep, drink, eat and game without the thoughts of anything going bad like a fridge breaking or a freezer or even shouting between your parents. You can have the freedom in your house to do anything and not get in trouble like in malls or restaurants. And your pets could feel scared or sad about leaving their natural habitat and leaving their parents so making them think you are their parents and making them think they are safe and life would be the same when they're not in their habitat. People could come over and you can feel the same happiness and joy when they're not in their actual homes. I can feel at home when I feel like it's started to get competitive and people are having fun when I play soccer or basketball and feel the fact that you have someone to play with and they have you to play with also. You could go out for a walk and everything is peaceful and everyone is being nice to you and people aren't shouting or screaming. I can go out and feel excited and joyful when I go fishing with my grandparents because they are the ones that can make me feel happy when I am sad. I can go camping with my family and that can make me more excited than usual and that makes me very appreciative of my family.
