Home Can Mean More

Home is a building for some, but for me home has so many more meanings. My home is special, and so are my houses. Home is where I make a lifetime journey of memories. My houses are where my family lives and where important times are. Most of the time, home is just a structure, but for me it’s a place filled with safety, comfort, peace and more. Home is where people should be treated right. Home can be a sight, touch, smell, sound, and more. For others, home could have different meanings. Home is like a shelter you could say, but for comfort and to be safe. People can have different perspectives than others; home is a place to be yourself, not anyone else. My home makes me feel that I can be myself for who I am and so should yours. My family might have tiny fights whether it's with my sister, brother, dad or mom, but my family loves each other, so they don't mean anything in the end. Home is a building, but my family makes it mean way more. When we are in the car on a rainy day, talking with your loved ones will wipe everything away like windshield wipers. My home has so many memories of it and outside of it. My home has details because of the photos on the walls, all the trails and camps we went on. Watching movies and playing board games.
