The Meaning of Home

When I come home, I feel safe, and I feel warmth that I don’t feel often. I also feel that I’m protected from anything bad that can happen. When I’m sad, home makes me feel better and happier because that’s a place where I can talk to people. When I come home, I smell my mom or dad’s cooking, and it relieves me that I have somewhere that I am known. I love that at home I can play with friends and family. I love that I know people care about me and how I feel. At home I love that my dog runs up to me and starts licking me showing that she loves me. I love that I can tell my family how school was or the party. I just love how I can talk to people when I need to. I love my entire family because they are always with me even if I’m sad or mad; they are always there. I have three little siblings that I love to care for and show that I love them no matter what. I love that I can go and play games with my family when I’m having a bad day. I love them even though I get mad at them. I will always truly love them no matter the cost. I love that they will pay for food and other necessities. I am always happy when I get home because I can see my family. I love that they pay for my video games and my sport equipment even though they don’t have to. I just love my family so much all around because they provide for me, and they care for me. They don’t have to do anything for me, but they do.
