What does home really represent?

What does home mean to us? Home is a place of love not a place to be mad at each other. For example, home is where you feel happy and warm with your family. Home can have many meanings. For example, home is a place where you can feel safe. Safe means a place you can trust. You can do what you want (but if you're a child, you need to ask your parents to allow you). Home can also be a relaxing and free place where no one controls you. Like, when you're at work or school, you have to listen to your teachers. But when you are home, you feel free and relaxed. Home is like a shield, it can protect you from the weather, you can drink hot chocolate inside and you enjoy it, yummy! Home can make you get less stressed and less ill. Do you know that home can actually serve as your identity? Before my parents told me, "Home is where family is and we have love and live together.” That's enough for me. Home is very important to us and we are living in a very big home called Earth.
