What Is A Home?

Home is not just a building, it is where you can be yourself. A home is not the same as a house. In your home no one will judge you and you are not afraid to be you. Houses are a building where you live, sleep and eat. Home is where you are happy, where your heart is, and where your loved ones are. Optimism, joy, kindness and love are all traits that should be found at home. If you have something bad happening, everyone in your home will be on your side. Loved ones will be there for you through happy times in your life, as well as sad ones. Memories and happy feelings are found at home. At the end of a long day, walking in through the front door, you can feel the love radiating from your kin excited to hear about your day. Every room and corner rings with echoes of birthdays, milestones and good times, you just have to listen. Embraces and warmth fill homes right to the very brim. A warm home means that no matter how far you travel, your home is like a magnet, always pulling you back at the end of your voyage. “A house is made of walls and beams, a home is made of love and dreams.” -Ralph Walso Emerson
