What Home Means To Me

After I came home I felt like it was my home, but when I moved to a new house, it was empty. I found boxes all over the floor but when I started moving things around, it felt like home again. When it was time for bedtime I put on my fluffy pajamas and put my head on my cozy and warm pillow. When I woke up I heard the sound of breakfast sizzling. At lunch time, I heard the sound of lunch cooking and then supper boiling and I know I'm home. I can go to a hockey game or anywhere I please and home still stays home. You go to a relative's house or even a friend's home that's not your own and sometimes it doesn't feel right but that's okay. Home is the place where you should feel comfort and if you don't feel comfort that can really change what you think about home. My home has many people but no matter how busy it is, it still feels like home to me. Everybody out there should have a home that feels right, safe and people that will help you. That is what a home means and that is what every home should have.
