What does "home" mean to you?

What is home? Home in my words, is where I feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Home is a place where I feel loved and cared for, where I am secure and at peace, where I can relax and feel comfortable, and lastly, it is my happy place. Our home is located in a peaceful location and we are lucky to have kind neighbors. We are staying in the basement and it feels like we are staying in our own place. Loving family member look out for one another and strive tirelessly for one another are also referred to as a home. Our home is made up of my mother, father, and my brother. Our house becomes a home because of the love that we share with each other. A home is important because it gives people a place to live, love, and a sense of community. I can relax and be myself at home. I want to spend the most of my time at home because it is a place where I feel comfortable and confident. Home is a place of warmth and safety. A location where we can live with our family to create memories and build foundation. It doesn't matter if home is not that big, it is about the emotions and significant things, such as spending time with the people you love and creating wonderful memories which are important. "Home is where love, hope, and dreams begin." Our home is a treasure place in my heart. I am incredibly grateful to have a place that I can truly call home.
