The Meaning of Home

The meaning of home What is the meaning of home? The meaning of home is comfort, love, happiness, kindness and so much more. Most people would just think that a house and a home are the same but that’s not the case. A house is just a structure with nothing special about it. A house is a thing and nothing meaningful about it. A home is emotions, laughter and most especially, feeling like you belong and having fun. What my home means to me is that everyone can be themselves and know that they will be loved for it. Nobody’s home is the same as someone else's but that doesn’t mean that it’s any less special than yours, as long as you have happiness, love and more, then you have a home. Not a house, a home. To me, a home just means having good feelings such as comfort, being safe, having people there for you and so much more. A house has no feelings because a house has no one in it, but a home does and everyone in that home makes you feel like you belong even more. So the meaning of home is just having love, support and most importantly happiness and kindness.
