The Meaning of Home

A home is not just a place to sleep or just a building, a home is where your friends and family are. You may not have a house but everyone has a home. You could live under a bridge but you still have a home as long as your family is under that bridge with you. You may have no family and live in an alley but that is a home as long as your friends are there. Home is not a physical thing but an intangible idea. You could live in a mansion but have you made any fond memories there? A home is not just where the heart is but also where your family and memories are. A house is like a blank piece of paper waiting to become a masterpiece. It’s a piece of artwork more beautiful than the Mona Lisa and that is the true meaning of home.
