Home Sweet Home

I’m assuming you’ve heard of the quote "home sweet home" and "there's no place like home", but they don’t just call it that for no reason. What the quotes are trying to say is that you will always rely on your home whether your home is a tent, an apartment, a cabin or maybe even the forest. You always wake up in the morning but would you rather wake up inside of your warm cozy bed inside your home or wake up outside and be freezing/burning? Personally, I would rather wake up cozy in my bed than wake up in the middle of nowhere being really hot or really cold. Home is always where you can be yourself and talk and celebrate your culture with your family because nothing is better than celebrating the New Year with your family and doing it the way your culture celebrates it, whether your culture celebrates it with different food or with different objects. Home is also where never forgettable, sweet memories are made, like when you learned to walk, you get your driving license or you graduate. These are all things that happen in your home. But a house is just a structure with four walls and a roof. A lot of people would love that but it's just not the same as a “home sweet home”.
