What a Home Can Be

A home can give off lots of different feelings. How you decorate your living room, kitchen, your room, or even the bathroom, can express different feelings. It adds spice, taste and flavor to your home. It adds your own unique touch to the place. Whatever you do, whether you put up signs, lights, posters or banners, a home can be a place that you should feel proud of. A room can be a place of joy, like playing games with your friends, laughing along the way. Or watching movies while eating popcorn. Although it could be all those things, a room can also be a quiet place where you can relax, just listening to your favorite songs, and closing your eyes to get lost in your thoughts. A room is a special place. The walls might be decorated with paintings and posters and flags. So every time you look up at them, hopefully you could see a part of you. A home can be a place where you look forward to going after a long day. Where you can sit down and enjoy your free time. A home can be a place where all your worries are lost, where you do what you enjoy and relax after a long day. Where the people you love accept you for who you are. You might be a boy, a girl, or neither. You might have unique preferences, or you may have different hobbies as everyone else. Home can, and should, be a place where you can express yourself, in any way, no matter what. By: Abby
