What does the word home mean to you?

For me home is a place where one can be comfortable and relax. Its a sanctuary, a protection from the outside world.

My home is the house that I have lived in since 2005. Before that my home was my cottage that I used to own. I lived there from 1991 until 2005. I often refer to my home country and that is England. Home sweet home is a place to relax and be with my family plus my pets. My home is a place where I can do clutter clearing. My garden is a place where I can enjoy some sunny weather when that happens. My home is situated on the edge of a coastal town. From the back of it I have views of the countryside.

Home to me means people living together are in harmonious relationship, love and respect each other, and are helping each other. A home for me is not a home if people are always quarreling over things, situations and little mistakes. I'd rather called it just a mere house than a home.

Hello Pose. Even though I now live alone, I associate the word home with family, with peace and safety, with comfort, with joy. It is the place where I don't merely exist, but where I live. Karen

I've always wanted a home, but I've not yet found it. I have a house, better, I live in a house, but not a home. Home is the place I want to be, where I'll be safe and where I'll leave worries out. Home doesn't need to be a flat, a house, a building, it can be just a corner of the garden, a store, a town, even a country, it can be anything that makes me feel safe and welcome, something I don't want to leave and crave to go back. I don't think everyone has a home, but I think we should do all the possible to find one, probabily should spend more energy into finding a home than finidng a partner. That's my view on the thing.

Home to me means sanctuary. It doesn't have to be the place where I live at, it could be an isolate place, a room, a holy place...anywhere I feel at peace with myself and with the rest of the world.

To me home is where the heart is ,and this is why I love to decorate to make the house as comfortable as possible. Anybody can have a place to live ,but very few people have a home sweet home.

Home for me is everything .. . That's where I get to relax, get inspired, feel happy and many more. In other words, my home is not just a place or a dwelling, it's more than that.

Many different things, shelter, warmth, family. The place where I put my things. The place where my children are growing up. The place where my beautiful dog once roamed the large back yard we got just for her. The place where we have had many lovely Thanksgivings, and Christmas. The place where my husband I watch TV together every night in our family room, the place where two of our three children were conceived. This is a place that has been through so much with us. I guess our house is like part of our family.

Home and House are diffently described to me by my parents, though they actually have the same meaning. A house, which we call "bahay" in our local dialect, is simply a place where family leaves, a place of shelter for the family, they sleep there, eat, etc. Home, which on the other side we call "tahanan", is the same place a the house. But a house can't be called a home, if the people who lives there do not have peace, love, healthy living, people in it always quarrel. It couldn't a home if people living it that house is in hunger, no food on their table. A home is simply where we really love to be in it, with people we love and people who loves us.

i always thought before home is where we can find help and understanding. and comfort and peace. but it is not to me. i find home can be a place where we can feel confused and helpless. though i admit that i can rest and stay at home and have the things that i need. but it does not mean that i will be more happy at home. actually i am more sat at home. there was more problems at home. and wish that i had not stayed that much before in my home because i had so many problems just staying at home. problems with other member of the family. so much misunderstanding. we ideally think that our family is our source of our understanding and etc. but it is not always the case and it is not the case with me. i don't get understanding from my family. i can't tell them my problem and if they do know they don't bother to help. and so ideally home should be where we can be ourselves and not to fear any thing. but not for me though.

A home for me is a place for a family to dwell with all the love, care, understanding and respect for each other. It's a place where one love to rest and meet his loved ones after a day of hardwork. It's a place where one want to experience peace and joy. You find peace of mind of seeing your loved ones, coming home, talking, dining and sleeping together. You'll find joy in hearing them singing, dancing and dreaming together. Sometimes there are little troubles, but everything will be alright, in the so called Home...

hi pose home sweet home... a place where you will always return to, a place where you feel most comfortable, a place to rest after a long days work, a place to meet your close ones, a place to think deeper about life, a place to admire things you never had time to, somewhere you can be yourself, and after the day is done a place where you can regain yourself, home means a lot to me.

As soon as I saw your question, I remembered that old saying: "Home is where the heart is." I guess that is my favorite definition of "home." Home is much more than stones and bricks. Home is made up of memories, smells, fragrances, shared laughter, tears, comments and questions. Home is where you find love or learn about it. Home may be where you learn to fight. Home is the "nest", the safe place, the back drop, the safe foundation...home is deinitely where the heart is. In case you thought that was a very idealistic definition, I admit I am being idealistic in my definition. Why not? After all, isn't "home" an ideal state of being anyway?

for me the word "home" means a roof over my head in a convenient location, near a bus stop, where I can come and go as I please. If i want to stay in and relax, I can, but if I want to go somewhere else, that bus stop allows me to go anywhere in town I want, including to the greyhound terminal which will take me out of town. To me "home" means "centrally located with lots of options"

Home is a place of peace, where you can be yourself, where you feel safe and wanted. Home is a great place

there's nothing more special than HOME. it means that it is where special moments happen because FAMILY is first set up in a house where we called HOME. It is the only place that we feel very safe and relax.

For me, "Home" means the place in my hometown where my family live and love and care each other. I have lived in some different places. But there's no home like my home, where i'll always feel the love and caring from my parents and my brothers and sisters.

home means a safe warm place to be thats mine
