Home is a Special Place

Although our home is made with concrete and cement, the air is filled with kindness, peace and cheerful memories. Home is way more special than walls, bricks, floor and stone. It's a place where you have the most supporters. A home has warmth that lingers in the air. A house is somewhere that has rooms and stairs, but a home has laughter and love in the air. The living room beats with a strong heart, where bonds start and end. Home is where you can be yourself and feel comfortable. Home doesn't need to be a place where you sleep and have supper. Home is a place where you can feel happy. Home is a place where you can relax. You can feel the sun coming in through the window. We are given a push and a shove where we learn to be strong. At home, we are taught right from wrong. It's where we learn to be who we are. Home is where the fire burns bright on frosty winter nights. Home is where we share stories and laughter. Home is where we celebrate special occasions making traditions with memories that will last a lifetime. May it always be filled with love and cheer. May it always be a place where you find peace. A haven that has good souls that will never cease. A home is like a plant, it can grow. It will get stronger and in the end, it will bloom. Sometimes it will crumble because home is not a perfect place, but this type of home will grow with love and joy. A home is where memories are made, where laughter and love will never fade. To me home is not just a place to sleep, it's a place where you share love and peace. A house can be big, but the big thing in a home is our hearts. A house may have fancy designs, but a home is where the real beauty shines. Home is a place that I feel comfortable and welcome. Home is where the heart is and the heart will stay. A place with love and laughter and lots of memories with family. It is not just a place where you are living, but it's a truly beautiful life. You can feel cozy and warm at home. Home is where you feel safe and secure with the ones you hold dear. Your family and your home will always have the biggest affection. When I walked into my house for the first time I thought to myself, this is home. The most special thing about home is that nobody leaves.
