Home is More Than a Place - It’s a Feeling

Home is more than a place; it’s a feeling. Home is joy, the aroma of freshly baked samosas in the kitchen. Home is boredom, my imagination creating new worlds in the basement. Home is confidence, making the winning goal in the backyard. Home is sadness, tears running free and wild through the hallways. Home is amusement, laughing during a game of charades in the living room. Home is excitement, hopping on my bicycle from the garage. Home is frustration, seeing my best outfit still dirty in the laundry room. Home is anticipation, hiding as quiet as a mouse in the closet. Home is anger, fighting my brother for the last piece of cake in the dining room. Home is comfort, embracing my parents at night in my bedroom. Home is where all my emotions flow freely with my loved ones. Because home is more than a place, more than a pile of bricks, more than four walls. Home is a feeling.
