What Home Means To Me

What is home? Did you ever think about it? Well if you think about it, home is not just a house with four walls, windows, rooms, and doors. It is what’s hiding beneath those four walls, windows, rooms, and doors. Home is where my family gets together and we eat our traditional foods and meals. Home is where we spread the love around all of us. Home is where we watch our favourite movies, tv shows and anime series. Home is where we say our prayers to our gods and hope for good fortune. Where we gather around and tell our stories of our past and laugh all the way. Home is where we play the most fun board games, and play fair between everyone. Home is where my little brother eats up all the marshmallows from his favourite cereal. Where I get creative and try new things. Home is where my family comes home from vacation and shares the most amazing part of our adventure. It is a place that we heal those in need and help everyone. Where we invite and share the space between us to make our guests feel special. Where my cousins come and have sleepovers and slumber parties together. Home is where I play all my favourite games on my grandma’s iPad. Where we bond together and have fun. Where even when life is tough we still come home to a happy place to keep us safe. It is the place where not only myself but everyone can grow and create memories along the way. It is the safest place I know, in where I am sheltered from judgment and can be free to be me.
