My meaning of home

Everyone has their idea of what a home means to them, but for me, a home is a loyal, compassionate, loving and supportive environment. A home doesn’t always need to be somewhere you live, as for some people, where they live is toxic, but instead, somewhere peaceful, somewhere cozy, or even someone. My home is my cousin's house, the reason being they are always super welcoming, friendly and warm-hearted and they are not judging, in other words, it is somewhere I can express my true self without thinking twice about what they’ll think. A home is somewhere comforting where you can grow. Like a home, a house is also a place where you grow together, except the difference is a home doesn't always have walls and furniture but rather a place that makes sad days into the best days and fills your day with positivity and confidence. A home is somewhere where your face immediately fills with joy, happiness, laughter and peace when you enter. It’s a place where everyone can make happy memories. Home is a place where friendships and family can grow and stick together. A home is a place where you are safe and secure.It’s somewhere where you have the freedom to do whatever you want. Home is where you can let out all your anger and tears without feeling embarrassed about what others would think. In conclusion, a home is somewhere luxurious and fancy. Even if it’s not the prettiest, it’s your home. A house can sometimes be toxic, so everyone deserves to have their own home.
