A home can be defined in many ways. It's a residence, a family dwelling place, and often times a refuge from the outside world. It's made of walls, and windows, and doors, which can keep people out, keep people in, or open freely so all may enter and leave as they wish. The concept of home has been characterized in many ways over time.

1) Home is where the heart is

2) Home Sweet Home

3) You can travel the world to search for what you need, but when you return home, you'll find it

4) There's no place like home

5) You can buy a house but you have to make it a home

6) A home is not defined by its structure but by the people who fill it

7) A person who hopes to change the world must begin at home

8) How you behave at home, where others can't see, defines who you are

A home is a place of residence or refuge and comfort.^[1] It is usually a place in which an individual or a family can rest and be able to store personal property. Most modern-day households contain sanitary facilities and a means of preparing food. Animals have their own homes as well, either living in the wild or in a domesticated environment. A home has no physical definition, rather it is a mental or emotional state of belonging.
