Different Family Home Situations

Different Family Home Situations Home is that place where laughing and crying happens. It is where I make art. It's where I do online school. Home is that place where bonding happens right by the crackling cozy fire in the evening. Where I have warm meals on a cold day. It is where I come home from school and figure skating. It is where I'm growing up, it is where I shall stay. But I can’t imagine being homeless, going to dig in the trash for food or just having a couple of veggies on hand. I think everyone deserves a great warm and cozy home not on the cold streets. People are begging for money, but instead of giving them money give them clothes, food and water, hand warmers or a blanket and gloves. Then there are those who are just barely surviving and barely getting enough income to put food on the table, barely getting clothes and shoes or can’t pay their bills or rent. They try their best to do everything that they can for their families. That would also mean that kids in this situation can’t do sports or extracurricular activities. These are all reasons why I love my home and I’m blessed to have a roof over my head warm meals on a cold day. I thank God for this everyday of my life. I always hope for more people to have these things but some people just can’t afford it. Please Note: School Postal Code is L7G 4S4. It wouldn't work.
