- This relates to home in many ways. My doodle book always made me feel at home. Whenever something bad happened, and I was depressed, or angry, I'd draw in my doodle book. I'd draw an alternate, to what had happened, the happy side! It helped me to get over my self-harming, to imagine a happier life.
The fluffy quilt, is a reference to my soft personality. It makes me feel at home, as it actually makes me feel loved. It's warmth, and just the basic fact of how soft it is, makes me feel liked by all.
My DS has been a very amusing part of my life. When sad, I'd play it, and I could get so mad at points I'd rage and throw it XD. It brought me to meet many friends, via the friend codes. This makes me feel very at home. I love it to pieces.
My phone, with the photo of my friends. My friends make me feel at home, when I'm with them. They have helped me through so much, I actually cannot express words of how happy I am to have them! It makes me feel amazing, to have such great friends! How they're friends with me is beyond my comprehension. I am truly grateful for them, and I love them more than words can speak.
Then, finally, is Fluffy. My tuxedo cat. She has always understood my emotions, and cuddled up with me when I have been sad. I love her so much. It has changed form me comforting heer as a kitten, to her comforting me. I do not know where I would be without her. I love her, she makes me feel at home ^^.
Everything here has helped me, and I especially love my friends and cat ^^ This, is what makes me feel at home.

- I hope I attached it correctly. Anyhow, this photo was taken quite a while ago. My grandparents used to live in the middle of nowhere, on a steep hill surrounded by a dense forest. They lived in a beautiful log home and owned a pair of four-wheelers which they used to take my sister and I on rides around their rural neighborhood. This neighborhood was my home away from home, just across the road from my grandparents lived a girl close to my age. She became one of my best friends, and her grandparents became like a second family to my own. We used to play around her house, and in her yard where a few horses would come up to the fence. We would care for these horses, especially one pudgy palomino in particular. I was four when this picture was taken. We had gone on an expedition, one that took us through the Amish part of the neighborhood, and one that took us through dirt roads that crossed over shady rivers. We saw many run-down houses that had a sort of 'country charm' to them, and many fields with horses grazing. This was one such field. I remember this field, where it is and how to get there, even though my grandparents no longer live in that area. Seeing this photo made me remember the four-wheelers, the long often bumpy rides through forest trails and the roller-coaster like roads. I miss the place where this was taken, and regret not wanting to take more rides that could have lead to more beautiful pictures like this. I truly wish they still lived there, but log homes take a lot of care, and my papa and nana are getting older, and sadly, can't provide the care the house needs. I hope the people that live there now care for it as my grandparents have for as long as I can remember, because I'd hate to see my home away from home fall into disrepair.
Oh, I don't know if you need this or not, but my username is Caress. Thanks for reading all of it if you have, and I hope you enjoy the picture. c:

- To me my picture would go in the category happy because it makes me happy. It represents old/happy memories. My picture is of me and my dad when I was younger. It was taken before one of his band practices! This picture represents old/happy memories because sadly my father past away in 2012 so this picture reminds me of one of the many times we've spent together. Yes I know it's not very creative but this picture makes me happy and feel at home.

- Where do I feel most like home?
Even I don't know this answer.
Is it with family?
Is it where I live?
Is it when the sun shines brightly above?
No.
It's not when we sit down to have a meal over the Holidays.
It's not when returning back to my house after a long trip.
It's not when the days are long, warm and shines so bright.
No.
Ever so often I ask myself, "where is home?",
"how do I get there?" and tell myself "I want to go home."
Even though I'm sitting right in our living room.
I guess over the 20 some years I've lived here I've lost my way home.
The roads have become bumpy, the days are so gloomy and the weather always has something to say.
Even if I'm I'm inside curled up in my own room, I can't uncover the map that leads home.
but...
Ever so often I will find the slightest glimpse of home.
This warm smiling face of fluff with and burst of energy to knock me over.
Sniffing my hair, stepping on my toes and not letting me pass without petting him on his rear.
This silly pooch can almost always make me smile. Whether he’s jumping into my lap and covering me with his long fur or if I'm just glancing at old photos of him making dorky faces.
Photos that even have terrible quality that you can barely make out or even ones that were taken by accident and somehow came out wonderfully.
These memories and moments are almost what I'd call home but.. if you look carefully at my photo you'll see it. My home.
No, it's not my back yard in which I took the photo in. No, it's not the windows or doors leading inside or even the railing to help guide my way up the icy steps.
Look harder. In all the blur.
That's right.
My other half. (Jager, The blurry green thing.)
Once together, with my other at my side, and the fuzzy butt we call our own, is when I finally feel mostly at home.

- This photo indicates that personally, I feel at home when I have a good book and my laptop around. I attempted to show with the filter that it may be a gloomy, damp day. I tried to focus on the, laziness, I suppose is the word, of the type of day. Pajamas, a good book, your laptop, etc.

- I have two horses: Daisy(left) and Trinket(right). Two years after my family moved to colorado, we recieved two horses. At first I was really shy around the horses, but after a while I grew very attached to them. The Trinket and Daisy relieved my stress from school and family buisness. I would go out and visit the horses, pet them and groom them. I would always enjoy leaning against the wooden fence pole, the soft breeze blowing as I watched the horses. Trinket and Daisy link me to the mountains of colorado, the ranch life, and life in general. So these two horses are my sanctuary, my home.

- The tiniest of things can remind somebody of home..This tiny tree reminds me of home, and makes me feel happy each time I see it. It makes me feel at home because me and my little sister Venetia planted this on July 4th last year. It makes feel like I'm home because I remember the smile on her face when we planted it. This tree is small for now, but it has memories with it as well.
The reason this tree means so much to me now is because I do not see my sister much in the first place. Our parents are divorced and I live with my Aunt while she lives with my Dad. While she's gone I look at the tree and just feel like everything is going to be okay..

- This image reminds me of home because I live near the beach and go there all the time.I always love watching the sun set and hanging out there with my friends and family. Home is something that is familiar to you. That's why I think family and familiar are spelled similarly. Your family is familiar to you so they might represent what the meaning of home is for you. For me the beach is familiar, so it's what I think of has home and somewhere I can turn to. Home is also something, someone, or somewhere you can turn to if you're happy, sad, or mad. The beach is somewhere I know I can go if I'm feeling any of those things.

- This photo revolves around "Home" because it made me feel very cozy, sitting next to the warm fire place on a cold winters night. Sitting by the fire always makes me feel nice and warm. When I feel nice and warm, I always feel at home, it doesn't matter where the place is.
