Home

  1. Home is a comfortable place.
  2. My house had many broken amenities and has a minor infestation of poisonous spiders, but my home is a place where I can relax and belong.
  3. My home is under a giant old tree.
  4. My home is sometimes infuriating but it's not about luxury, its about family.
  5. Once part of the roof flew off before a giant storm. My dad and I stapled the roof back on before the rain hit.

Home is not just a place. If a family were to move and visit the old house, no one would call it home anymore. Home is a place where I can be with family and relax. My house may have several broken things and a small infestation of brown recluse, but it's still home. Its not home because I spent 4 years living there, it's home because I feel at ease there.
