Home Means a Lot

When we went to Arizona we felt laughter, love, joy, happiness and most of all we made a lot of memories! You don’t have to do anything extraordinary. Little things are still a lot of fun. We need to be thankful for the things we have and not just want more. Some people don't have a safe place but honestly, everyone should. What do you feel when someone you love gives you a big hug? What I feel, is love and safety even though sometimes I just don't want to let them go. You need someone you can go to and cry if you need to. There are so many things that make me feel wonderful. When your friend stands up for you it is one of the best feelings in the world. When you stand up for people it makes you feel good too. When you make things and put time and effort into something for someone, it can make you feel amazing because they know that you took the time to care about them. Home isn’t just one place, it’s where you are with your family and friends, where your animals are, and where you can feel very strong emotions. That's a home to me!
