The Beating Heart of Home

Home is a large topic to understand. For some it means the house that shelters them, others say their culture or heritage, for me it’s earth itself. All people are on the earth, it is the place where home can be enjoyable and safe. with no earth there is no home or land to live and thrive on. Living in Nova Scotia is my current home, but I also feel connected to Alberta for I am moving there soon, making it my future home. Oftentimes, even the smallest of things feel like home. Anything can be home to you, just keep them close Sometimes the whole entire world is your home. The people that I live with are each other's home Even when my family is in an argument we still love and care for each other. Even if you come from a far and know a little of your ancestors' home you can still feel a connection, for example, I am part German. Home is everything, but at the same time only a couple things are home to you and me. Everyone has a home of some sort no matter what. Friends, family, town, country can all make a great and loveable home Even when you are surrounded by horrible things there is always the beating heart of home.
