The Difference Between a House and a Home

My home means that I am with my family and, more often than not, it means that I am happy. My house has all the food, chairs, TVs, beds, tables and all objects, but a home would have support, security, belonging, health, traditions, celebrations and care. A house is just a man-made building that has your furniture in it but the thing that actually makes your house your home is the support, belonging, traditions, care and way more. Like I said before, a house is just a building that you live in and for me it is very comfortable. My home is where I feel happy and safe. Another thing that makes it a home is the people and the happiness.
