What Does Home Mean to Me?

In my opinion, Home means a place where you feel safe, loved, and included. At home, I feel loved by family members, and it is my “safe place”. In my home, it is where I make most of my memories with my family, from playing games together, to having cozy movie nights, with warm buttered popcorn. Home is where I bond with my family members the most, and it is the place where I feel the safest. At your home, there is nothing better than going into my warm bed, and cuddling up into my blankets for the night. My home is where I feel happy. Houses can be any sort of structure, whereas a home is the place where you or someone else lives. In a home, you feel safe, protected, welcome, and it is the place where you” belong”. In your home, you often have your family with you, which is one of the nicest things about being able to have a home. A home can be a building, big or small, or a home could be anywhere where you belong. It could be a small hut in the woods, or an igloo in the arctic, but either way, your home is where you belong! In your home, you are safe, and you know that you have a place to lay your head. Home is often where you grew up and you made the most memories. Where you are born, you usually consider your home. When you move homes, your new place that you move into is now considered your home. Your home can be a building made out of bricks, or it could be a hut in the woods. Either way, your living place is where you consider your home!
