When talking about comfort zone thee is no place like my home, am always feel attach to my home, I may go out, meet people, joke and work but I must retire back to my home at the end of the day, I feel save and I'm used to the corners of my home, no matter how outside feel enjoyable I can never compare it to my home, my home is my safe haven, the outside world feels like a stage, but once I walk through my door, I don’t have to act anymore.
What I love most is how my home allows me to just be myself, I love to sit quietly at home that my neighbors would not know that I'm around, I love my space and privacy so much that I only go out whenever I want to, I have no one to disturb or distract me, I have the freedom I deserve and that is what comfort is all about.
There are some places I love in my home and one of my favorite spots in my home is my living room, After a long day, I just lie on the couch, stretch out my legs, and let my body calm down. Sometimes I drink tea, sometimes water, and sometimes nothing at all, I just sit there, put on my television and watch my favorite show till I'm tired of it, those little moments are the ones that help me feel alive again.
Another spot is my bedroom, my bed is like a friend to me, I may sit inside my bedroom for a day without coming out, I have everything I needed in the bedroom, there are socket to charge my phone, a mini fridge that contains cookies and fruits in case I'm hungry, I do my bedroom because the quietness of the room gives me peace that I can’t find anywhere else.
One of my hobbies is cooking so I can never neglect my kitchen, The kitchen too has its own charm, I know it may sound funny, but cooking makes me happy, one best thing I love is the aroma of the food I'm cooking, cooking makes me feel at home in a deeper way. Eating my own food gives me another kind of joy. It is like comfort you can taste.
Privacy is one thing I value so much, no one really care about the way you look inside your house, I can decide to put on anything I want and the same time I can decide not to leave my room, nobody care about what I do with my time, I only chose to let people know what I want them to know not to poke nose into my business
But beyond the rooms and the routines, what really makes my home special are the memories. I remembered the last time I hosted my family in my home, it was so fun and entertaining, the joy, the connection, the early morning devotion, the memories we created, it feels like we should be together, those memories live in the walls even when I am alone, the house doesn’t feel empty because of them.
I know some people see comfort in traveling round the country or going to fancy places to cool down, that is perfectly fine, but for me, my comfort is right here in my home. It is not about how big or small it is. It is about the peace it gives me. My home is my shield from the world, my hiding place, and my healing space.
