A Place Called Home

Home to me is wherever my family is. This may seem like something people just say, but don't actually mean, but this sentence is one of the truest words ever spoken. If your parents didn't love you, it wouldn't be a home. If your siblings hated you, it wouldn't be a home . The family makes a house a home, not the house itself.


Because a family is what first makes a home a home. When you first come into this world, your family is in your home. But after some time, the house just turns into a house, and your family turns into your home. My family is my home because they have been with me throughout my life, through hardships, issues, and arguments.


Home should be a place where you feel accepted and comfortable and where it's easy to talk to other family members. All three of those descriptions describe what a family is. My family makes sure that they are easy to talk to with me and make sure that I am comfortable. Comfort is one of the key parts of loving someone, if you change when you're around people you can never really care for those people. It's the people who like the real you that you should truly care for.


When your family is always with you throughout your life, you get accustomed to coming home to the people you love most, and if you don't do that then it's not a home. Me and my family have had some rough patches but they still love me and vice versa. Life throws curveballs at you many times, but the one thing you should always count on is a home with people who love you and accept you.


My family is my home no matter where they are or my relationship with them, they are the foundation of my life and to my parents, I will be forever indebted to them. They should always be the one thing you can count on when going through hardships. Your loved ones are what makes a home a home, and if your loved ones aren't there, then it isn't a true home.
