What does a home mean to me……..

What does a home mean to me…….. Home has so very much meaning to everyone and what it means to me is just one of the many. But mine is on of the traditional ones four walls a roof,something that provides shelter,a reliable food source because we have a garden but that's what i mean everybody has a different meaning and that wouldn't just be the structure that you sleep in i would count all the other things on your property as well.like say a barn or my garden for example.I think what the main meaning of a home to me is definitely a stable place where i sleep.just so thankful. Like i said everyone would most likely have a different meaning.as an example a homeless person would not have a house or building but they would still have a place to call home like if he/she had something tragic happen to them and they have lost their house and they were on a sidewalk or just on their own they would still have a place to call home even know it isn't exactly what we might think a home is.150 million people have to suffer through being homeless but that's only 2% of the world population however about 1.6 billion people have to suffer through not ever owning a house which is more than 20% of the human population that doesn't mean they don't have a place to live or a place to call home like i said if you lived on a sidewalk you could call that your home and its situations like this where i am just so grateful for everything that i have and that some people don't even get to sleep on a bed at night.
