"Home is where your heart is." I've heard this saying all my life. Home is just not a house or a place where you spend most of your time at. Home is where you feel comfortable at and you can be yourself with others. For most people home is their childhood house or the house they currently live in. Where most of their memories come from. My home is where my family is. Whether we're out for dinner, at a park or at each other's house, I'm home. We spend every holiday together and any big accomplishments that may happen in our family. We support each other in everything that we do. They are the reason why I push myself so hard. They guided me through every step in my life; through school and graduating. Into college and going into my career. Regardless of trouble we might have, at the end of the day we will be there for each other.
Home doesn't have to be one place and it doesn't need to be a place at all. Home can be with certain people. Besides my family, I'm home with my closest friends. They've had a huge impact in my life. Some I have been friends with over 20 years and some have been only the past 6 years or so. But time does not matter when a person is truly there for you. They don't ask for anything in return besides your friendship. Those are the people I will cherish in my life forever. My home is not a place, my home is with people I love and care for.
I agree that home is where you feel the most comfortable. It may not just be at home but it can be with friends, work, etc. Family always has your back and supports you through everything. Home is what you make of it.
ReplyDeleteHome is much more than a building made of four walls, I agree. It is a place, any place, where one feels at ease and free to be themselves. This feeling may be experienced when with family, close friends, or even a mentor, someone who accept you for who you are, yet encourages you to continue moving forward.
