My Comfort Zone

Mainly, home is my most loved sanctuary where I can feel peace, love, comfort, and discomfort. Home is also a place where I feel safe expressing all of my emotions. Home is my safe haven. When I was sick and had to be hospitalized, I was forced to be out of my comfort zone. When my family members would call to check on me, it made me miss my home because I wasn’t there. I was already sick enough but then I heard how shaky their voices were, it made me feel even more sick and nervous. Leaving my safe haven to stay in a place that made me nervous and uncomfortable was absolute torture. I felt scared, but I got through it having my parents support me and having very nice nurses. I love my home and family because they are a big part of my life. I feel safe and cozy. Safety is a number one thing homes should have, but sometimes they don’t. Mine has lots of safety which is why I have a passion for home. My family also provides even more safety. Home is a place of safety for me and It’s a place where I feel comfortable to express myself and my emotions. It’s a place where I can feel love around me the most by my family and close loved ones. I love my home and everyone and everything in it, Other than the creepy things my family hordes.
