My Home

Matter not who are you. Rich or poor, kind or angry, alone or with family- you have a home. What you feel, when hear this word? For one, it is a smaller apartment, for another it is a favorite city, and someone perceives the whole country as their home. Everyone understands it is differently.

I strongly believe that home is the place where you are happy to hurry after a hard day. Although I have lived most of my life with my parents, and now I have my own family, only one place will always be my home, this is granny's apartment. And I want tell about it . Outside it is a typical home for our city: five-storey, with many antennas on the roof. The grey walls make it inconspicuous, but I will find it with my eyes closed if, I have to. Bright and cozy rooms have a special smell that awakens childhood memories. It is difficult to determine what it that smell. Perhaps it is the scent of morning pancakes or grandma's perfume, but it is something elusive. In addition to smells, each house has its own sound. At my house, the sound of a clock ticking and a doorbell resembling the singing of a Starling is the first thing that comes to mind when you take out precious memories. Maybe my image of the house is non-standard, but on the other I can not. For me the main thing is not things, but emotions and memories.

But this is only my position there are also people who understand the word”home” literally. For them it's a fortress behind a secure door where you can escape from as from the weather and from the ills of life. They put a lot of time and effort into creating comfort and harmony, and as a result, even the interior of such a house can tell everything about its owner.

I do not condemn those who are attached to the house as a certain place. Not at all, but it doesn't fit. As I said before, the feelings you feel are important to me. I do not care how much furniture is in the apartment and how many vases or statuettes will be on the shelves, and the fact that I with these objects in common. That is why I don't think I can understand people thinking otherwise.

There is a wonderful phrase Home where the heart and it fully conveys what we should always remember. Home is always near wherever we are.
