HOME SWEET HOME

Danny is a 9 years old boy, the only child of a rich couple. His mom and dad are very busy peoples. But however they still trying to give their little time to their son Danny by spending the weekend with Danny, but it really seldom happens. Physically they're with Danny but not with their heart. Their works took almost all the time they have, they just pretend to be right beside their only son but in fact they are not really there. Although he's only a small boy but Danny could feel that he's not totally owned his parents' heart.

One day, the parents must go abroad in the same time but different destination for their business trip. Danny was so very sad but couldn't do anything but pretended by showed his nice smile when his waving his hand to his parents before the car moved slowly and leave Danny with his nanny.

The nanny noticed that Danny was so desperate and feel lonely in the midst of luxurious stuffs that almost filled his room. Is that the TV, DVD, or computer that Danny wants but the real happiness. Then, in the following day, the nanny took Danny to her house. Her house is a humble house, really far from luxurious stuffs. There's a small living room, small kitchen, and there's no dinning room, the kitchen is the dinning room. In other side there're two bed room.

The nanny is a widow, she live with her only son named Josh. Josh is in the same age with Danny. In the first Danny was timidly but Josh asked him to play with him on the back yard while the nanny cook for their lunch. Danny so very happy. He never had a great time like this before. Although the back yard is not as beautiful and clean as the back yard in his house but Danny really don't care about it. He keep laughed and laughed and running all around the yard together with Josh until they're both got tired.

In the evening they're having a great dinner with simple foods, far from he deluxe food that Danny used to eat at his home but Danny so enjoyable to eat. After dinner, three of them have a nice chit-chat in the living room. When the time start getting late the nanny took Danny and Josh to Josh's room to sleep. There's only a bed in that room but big enough for Danny and Josh. After everything done then the nanny leave that room but when she was about to reach the door, suddenly Danny rose from the bed and run towards her and then give his best hug to the nanny and said,"Now I feel really like at home! Thanks."



Many of us lost something in understanding the meaning of HOME SWEET HOME. It's not about any treasures things, it's not about luxurious but it's about heart. The real meaning of Home Sweet Home will come from a heart of people who live in that house with love and care to each other and know how to appreciate their life. This is my opinion. If you want to share some opinions with me, please, that will be great!
