My Home
Home is like no other place on earth. No matter where you are, nothing can
comfort you like the familiar smells, and those special places in your home that
trigger different memories. My home is where I can feel safe, where I can socialize
with my family and friends, or have privacy when needed. It is somewhere for me to
unleash my creativity, and let imagination flow uninterrupted. It is where I learn, and
love, a place where I do not have to be afraid to make mistakes.

A famous quote about home states, “A house is made of walls and beams; a
home is built with love and dreams.” Home is what each member makes it. With out
me, and my other family members, home just becomes a cluster of walls and beams.
But it is the emotions, the feelings, and every little thing that we do that makes a
house into a home. It is this that takes those simple walls and beams, and turns them
into love and dreams.

My home is where I will grow up with many memories with the people that
shape my past, present, and future. It is where I will have a beautiful childhood that I
will never forget. My home is my own little world that my family and I have created
and at the end of the day, home is where I want to be, because coming home is an
unexplainable feeling, just like magic.
