A Home Isn’t A House

A home isn’t just a house, it's something that makes you feel warm and safe. It’s a place to make memories, the feeling of love and happiness, the feeling of your family hugging you tight. Your home is something to make you feel safe and happy, you make memories and smell the awesome smell of food and love. It's a place where you should feel positive and excellent. or the warmth of hot chocolate after a cold winter night or the nice cold ice cream after a a hot summer day. A home isn’t a thing with walls or a room, it could be your favorite playground or maybe your backyard. or it could be something that drives or floats or flies, it could be a car that you love, maybe a plane you love or a boat maybe a zoo or a school. Home doesn't need to be a place with your family; it can be your friend's house, your home is your choice. But it can be the feeling of you listening and relaxing inside your home or being active. Maybe working out or maybe dancing, playing video games with your sibling. Or friend, or just sitting in your bed and sleeping and waking up and knowing it's going to be a great day, because you have a home.
