WHAT IS “HOME”?

Home is where you feel safe. Your home is yours, for you and your loved ones. Home is where you are free to feel how you want to feel. Home is not a place, it's a feeling. Home does not have walls and a door. Home is not about things that cost a lot or a little, it's not where your things are either, they are in your house. Your home is where something more valuable than money is (love). You bring your home with you if you move but you don't take your house with you. Home is where we are comfortable, protected and loved. You are your family's home and they are yours. Home is a portal away from the craziness of life. Home always has your best interest in mind. Home is where Happiness lives. Home is where Sadness lives. Home is where Anger lives. Home is where Anxiety lives. Home is where Excitement lives. Home is where Embarrassment lives. Home is family. Home is different. You can’t buy a home, you have to make your own or find it deep inside you. Home is where the time FLIES because you're having fun. If you really really REALLY think about it, home is a mindset, home are those traditions that make life worth living (like leaving out milk and cookies for Santa Claus). Home is for people of all walks of life, home is for EVERYONE!!!!! YOUR HOME IS YOURS!!!!!
