Messy living area, cluttered
bedroom, untidy bathroom, grimy kitchen --- that’s how I described the usual
scenario inside our small house. It’s like there’s always a storm that slammed
inside our dwelling place. Commonly, stuff scattered around, clothes are not
organized and the sink is filled with used kitchen utensils. That’s the usual
picture of our house and seeing it clean at its best is a once in a blue moon opportunity.
My mother is not that into the habit of cleaning our
house because she’s always busy with our small business and she’s not the type
of mother who is keen when it comes to the house cleanliness. More so, my three
younger sisters are all lazy and are not that diligent in doing household
chores. Of course, I wouldn’t expect my father to do the thing because he is
working.
Since I lived in Manila to study, I didn’t do the task of
cleaning the entire house anymore that’s why every time I went home every two
weeks, its messy surrounding is not a surprise anymore. Actually, to see it
clean will be very surprising instead.
Despite the situation inside our home, I would consider
it as my favorite place among others. This is the place where I am raised as
well as my sisters, the place where I first learned all the virtues in life and
the avenue where I feel the love. This is a home that unified our family
wherein we have shared memories, laughter and even problems. This is the only
place that I feel really comfortable and I can show my true self.
As what the saying goes, “there’s no place like home”.
And indeed, nothing can compare to our home despite the fact that it is often
messy, I still love the four corners of it and the overall structure of it even
it’s not fully furnished yet. I am fond of every part of our home because each
of these witnessed the bonding moments I have created with my family.
Certainly, I consider my home as a utopia wherein
everything is in harmony except for the mess and dirt that cluttered around.
