What the meaning of home means to me

Home is a place where I feel safe, loved, and important. It’s a place where I make memories with my family. Home is a sanctuary of safety, unconditional love and belonging. Home is not just a building or a place, it's a feeling. While it often refers to a house or a building, “Home” can be a feeling of peace and comfort that exists wherever one feels secure and loved. It’s a place where you have the freedom to be yourself. It’s about feelings and important things like spending time with your family. Home is the place where you don't have to explain the tired parts of yourself where your silence is understood. Your laughter comes easily and you’re allowed to arrive exactly as you are.
