Some people say their home is the place where they live. “The house on the corner of 22nd street with the bright red paint and big oak tree”, but to me it can't be as simple as the building I live in.Home isn’t something physical, instead it's more like shared feelings and memories you make as you grow up.Home is less of the warm bed you sleep in or the clean bathroom you shower in, it's much more.Its not just a house built from bricks and wood, but it’s a sense of comfort and security that you share with those around you, that truly create a foundation for something you can call “home”
I believe that “home” is a feeling, something that makes you feel comfortable , like where you're meant to be. It’s knowing that,no matter what, you’ll always have a loving family , or friends you can both laugh and cry with. It's all these moments, both good and bad, that make a person feel right at home. Home is about familiarity and comfort.Having the knowledge that no matter where you are, at any time of the day, you’ll still have a place to call home. It lies within the connections you have with people and the memories of past those places.
A house might be where you live but it doesn’t make it your home. Home is the warm feeling of familiarity, security, and the genuine happiness you receive when you're with people or surrounded by the memories of the people you love. It can definitely exist in a physical place, somewhere where you can come back to at the end of the day. But it’s the history and connections that gives that place the true feeling of home. This is exactly why i believe that home is less of place, it's more of a feeling.
