The house or flat/apartment that you live in. especially with your family is called home. Naturally, one gets accustomed to the place of one’s residence and begins to feel emotional attachment to it. Home is not only a place of living but a sanctuary that provides protection against adverse circumstances.

As home is the main object of man’s desire, he involves in its affairs lovingly. Its cleanliness, decoration, usefulness, comfort, everything absorbs the attention of its inmates. This is the only place where one feels security, ease and authority. In the East, it has assumed considerable importance as one of the greatest wishes of the people.

Home is the greatest utility. Whenever we are away from home, a great wave of nostalgia sweeps over us. We miss desperately the comforts at home. In our culture, people usually earn and save the whole of their life to have a home of their own. It seems one of the main objects of their life. In fact, this approach has limited the horizon of his life.

In the west, although, home is a place of living and comfort yet the possession of a home is not looked upon as a matter of life and death as it is considered in the east. This difference of outlook makes it easy for the westerners to avoid a permanent cause of depression. They find it easy and manageable to live in a rental. They do not make it a matter of personal prestige. To our utter astonishment, the president or prime minister in the developed world does not hesitate to live in rented apartment.

In our society, people usually spend a lot of time at homes, while in the developed world thcy prefer to remain busy in outdoor activities of entertainment. This difference in ways of life affected their manners and thinking related to household life.

An interesting thing in our culture is who will rule the roost. And this is the very controversial one as well. Every family has its own way. Commonly, man is the head of household though practically women exert a large influence in decision-making.

Home is the center of affection and kindness. We should deal every member of family with great love and respect. We should serve all of them wholeheartedly. We should always think the collective benefit of the household and remain selfless in every motive so that the whole family may enjoy unprecedented prosperity.
