Home. What does it mean to be home?
home
n.
1. A place where one lives; a residence.
If we go by this definition, then my home
is technically in Redondo Beach, California.
But to me, home is SO much bigger than that.
To me, home is where the heart is.
Home is where you feel like- well, you.
You're comfortable in your own skin,
like thats where you belong.
To me, Guam is home.
I've always felt like that,
but since I've been here, I've figured out why.
The people, the place, the way of life,
It's just the way I want to live.
California always holds a special place in my heart,
and I'm obviously going back when my time here is done,
but being here just makes me realize that I belong here.
If you have had the amazing opportunity to find this
place that you call home, take advantage of that.
I'm so fortunate to not only be from this place,
but to be able to spend so much time here.
I love California, but this is home, and will always be.
That's all for now!
Thanks for reading!
Sincerely,
Me.
Simply, a seventeen year old.
So beautiful, Carly. My friend, Inna told me about this post. I'm so proud of you.
