The Meaning Of Home

The meaning of home is a place with family, pets and even friends. The meaning of home is to feel safe until the end. A home isn’t a roofed building, shielding you from the rain. It’s someone or something that encourages you to take a leap of faith. A home includes hope to become what you want. Not a building or a bakery filled with croissants. The meaning of home is undying friendship that emanates love. Or somewhere that only believes in good things to come. Somewhere that mistakes happen but you feel no failure. Only to know that it takes many tries to make something bigger. The meaning of home is courage ready to be used, or bravery ready to be fueled. A home isn’t somewhere normal, but something or someone that makes you know you don’t have to be formal. The meaning of home isn’t a normal place, but a person, thing or anything more… Knowing that your home grants you the peace of not being hurt by bullies at school anymore. When you feel lonely, you remember you have people who care. When you ever feel useless, your home tells you that you’re rare. With or without, your home is somewhere you should feel calm, no doubt. The meaning of home can be a sight to behold. A friend, family or pet that could break the greed of gold. Somewhere that makes you feel proud to not be alone. That is the true meaning of home.
