I really enjoyed reading everyone’s blogs about what home means to them and thank you all for sharing. While reading I noticed many similarities of what people believe defines a home so here is my list:
Home is…
- a feeling, not necessarily a specific location.
- associated with family, whether blood-related or not.
- defined by a sense of belonging, comfort, and safety.
What I most enjoyed about this assignment was reading blogs about students living in different cities or countries and comparing their sense of home to that of students that haven’t moved around. I thought it was really neat that all of our blogs have these common qualities that are not defined by a specific location. I think overall this assignment really showed me that home is not defined by location but of the experiences and feelings that a location can bring.
