What Makes a House a Home?

When we were younger having our classes in elementary school, our school teachers would tell us that a house is not something we want but rather, it’s something that we need. As it’s a place that keeps us shelter from calamities, secured from dangerous people, or in all its sense, it keeps us safe from all harm in the world. However, the question remains: what makes a house a home?
A Flavorful Kitchen
In the heart of the house, where memories and delicious treats are made. Where we loan a moment of our time creating the greatest meal to serve whether it’s for us or for those we love.
The Living Room
The intimate area of the house where we feel safe to become who we really are. Where we contact and invite people that we trust to hang-out for movie nights or for thoughtful discussions.
A Comfortable Bed
A place where we are most vulnerable as we lay down for a good night’s sleep, and the first place we wake up to each morning wishing we could stay a little bit longer.
Nostalgic Photographs
As pictures are worth a thousand words because of the story behind it. Each image displayed in our home holds a fragment of what once was, preserved forever through a small frame.
Fur Babies
The “meows” and the “barks” of our furry friends that we hear when they accompany us through our good and bad days. They make a home when they offer us comfort and unconditional love in our lives.
Our Family
Whether it’s the family you’re born into or your chosen family, it’s the people you go home to that truly makes a house a home. As they fill the house with love, inside jokes within the walls, and the kind of warmth that can soothe even the coldest days.
A house becomes a home when comfort is felt, where great memories are stored and when you can see yourself shine through its decorations. It becomes a home when you can wear whatever outfit you vibe with or when you can blast a song so loud unapologetically. It becomes it when every area becomes your comfort zone.
