 A Home and What It Means to You

I think one thing that makes a house a home are the memories that are shared there. I remember about two years ago when my husband and I shared a very small apartment in what turned out to be a bad neighborhood. We didn't have a lot of money, carpet,  nice furniture, or space. This one bedroom apartment was really really cramped. The bedroom just had a little walking space around the front and sides and the main room was very tiny also. However when it came time to move into our new home I was shocked by the feelings I started to have. I clearly remember not wanting to move. This may seem odd considering we were moving into a three bedroom home that was much bigger, but I think I was missing more than that apartment.  The memories left Inside.

 

Although it was very small, my husband and I were always together and close in whatever we were doing. It was cozy and warm and full of good memories. I loved to look out the window at night and watch the lightning with my husband and stay up all night talking. I also remember walking to blockbuster to rent movies and watching them together and swimming at the apartment pool. I remember attempting to cook and burning half of everything. We also remember how lively and anything from boring our apartment was. Calling the police and 9-1-1 on a regular basis and always making sure the doors were locked.


In seems sometimes we forget good memories and times. In life it seems that the little things are really the big things and money can't always give you those feelings or memories.
