What Home Means to Me

A home is not like a house or an apartment. It is a place where there will always be loving people by your side. A home keeps you warm on cold winter days and keeps you cool on hot summer nights. A home is where you grow up and learn. A home is where you sit around the dinner table with family and friends to share a delicious meal. It is also a place where you celebrate holidays like Christmas and sit around the Christmas tree as you open gifts from your loved ones. A home is not only a house, it could be your school where you hangout with your friends or your church where you gather with people who love you. A home is where you make special memories that you will never forget. All those memories are what help you grow up and learn what is right and what is wrong, they help you decide difficult decisions and those decisions can change your life and encourage you or discourage you. A home is where you rest in your comfy bed and think over your day. A home is where you learn essential lessons like responsibility, courage, kindness, humility, wisdom and honesty. This is what a home means to me.
