The Meaning of Home

The meaning of home My house always has a soccer ball in it, but my home is soccer . For me home isn’t a house, it's a feeling. Home for me is extremely competitive, but is also a safe place for me to be me The sound of the crowd,the rumble of the stands, my laces tied so tight I feel like my feet are suffocating.This is my home. it wouldnt matter where I'm sleeping (unless there was no soccer field within a 60 mille radius ). I love soccer and ever since I was little I’ve loved it. My mom and I practice allllllllllll the time but she tends to get mad when I play in the house but I dont really care, because when I'm home there is no one geting mad when I kick the ball high . When it comes to soccer im very competitive I just go for it and i would play for hours and hours at a time. I could be so tired I’m falling asleep in the car but when i get on the field it's totally diferent I just get a sudden burst of energy Most people have two different personalities, one at school and one at home but I have 3. One at my house, one at school and one on the field. I’m a totally different person on the field. I just forget my troubles and completely float away to a different planet . And that is my home.
