A place to belong

Having a place to belong is a major part of what makes for a happy life. If you do not have a place where you belong or where you feel comfortable, you could spend your whole live searching for one. Human beings are not very happy if they live in solitude 24/7. People need at least one person to talk to or at least see or the person would go stir-crazy. Even if you do not live at home and do not have a “home” as in a stationary place of residence, you will most likely have somewhere to feel comfortable. Belonging somewhere makes a person feel like they have a purpose on this earth and makes them feel like someone has got their back. People who do not belong anywhere have no idea how much life has to offer them because having a place where you belong can create so much happiness in a person. One big characteristic of having a place where you belong is the idea that the people there know you and often care about you. Belonging somewhere is a key to feeling like you belong and feeling like you have a purpose. The people that do not feel like they belong anywhere have a feeling of loneliness inside them because they don’t have anyone they can relate to. Every human should have at least one place where they feel relatively comfortable and like they belong.
