Whether a big luxury building, or a small rental flat, almost all of us have a special feeling about the place we are living in. The feeling that may vary in quality and intensity from person to person…
Yes. I am writing about home, house, Khane (in Persian) or whatever you call it in your own mother tongue. Our home, regardless of its size and features, is a place where almost all of us feel great comfort in it. It is like a safe shelter that links the members of a family; and a pleasing place which strengthens family bonds. Remember the time when you have been away from your home for a couple of days or longer, or the moment when you were heading off from the chaotic workplace to your tranquil home. Upon your arrival, you presumably sighed and whispered similar words: ”East or west, home is best.”
Now, Let’s go a little further to our dream lands in which there is no limitation and boundaries. A magnificent world which is under the empire of the human power of imagination not their intellect; and a place where everything is quite the same as what everybody likes to be. It is like an upward transition from the reality of the earthly world to the ideality of nowhere. So, our journey starts right here following this question: “What is your dream home like?”
My dream home is a wooden shack which is located in the countryside. It has a nice balcony which overlooks a big garden with bushy trees, nearby sea, and mountains. The balcony is surrounded by wooden fence; and the planters with colorful flowers are hung from it. The wall of the house is in green color due to the shrubs of Araliaceae plant which have covered the front wall of the house entirely. There is a rocking chair made of walnut wood on the balcony and you can sit in it, take a rest, listen to the pleasing sound of birds, and enjoy watching the marvelous sunrise and sunset.
By the way, what is YOUR dream home like?

P.S. Talking about dream home, let’s remember those who live under no roof like people of Palestine, Syria, Yemen, so on and so forth; and wish them peace, stability, and tolerance.

Dear Inna,
I'm fond of your nice dream house. By the way, thanks for your kind words.
Dear Hurieh, your English is perfect! Welcome to my dream house - deep in the woods, surrounded with oaks and birch trees. And no human dwelling for miles around...
Thank you very much for your encouraging words dear Sam. I'm glad you like it.
Dear Hurieh,Bravo!..I like the way your writing more than the concept that you have made sense about luxuriant home. It doesn’t mean that the concept isn’t important for writing. There are many ppl here waiting for having good posture of their writing. I would like to get your blog as a model here as it’s a well balance blog to the guys who want more vocabularies, sentence patterns..etc. They are to think about your effort and trigger to think about a new blog.
Dear Naif. I appreciate it. I'm pleased you like my blog.
Thanks Hurieh for your touching article. It really shows your poetics.Your deep feelings towards your dream home is true, and it represents a wider vision to a wider portray of home, "your country" and the world around you. This comes clear from your last words which show your kind heart's universal message to feel and be aware of others' suffering and plight.
Dear Mishaikh and Setareh, I do agree with you. As dear Camel also said, the feeling we have in a home is more important than physical and architectural design.
By the way, I really like your dream home Setareh. It looks like mine in some extent. Thanks for your nice comment.
"Since when my beloved deserted my home, the people have made it a thoroughfare".
(Translated from Urdu poet).
So you see an ideal or dream home is what where your love ones dwell.
