HOME

Who slept here before i came? who lived in this room? how did it look? I bet it wasn't the same. was there a girl or two little boys? Was there a home filled with toys? or a lonely place with empty beds? Was there a place to sleep? Wherever I travel wherever I roam, these are the things that remind me of home, the smell of a clean place that blows in my face. It’s the times I felt happy instead of afraid. We should all take a second before we ask for something that we might not need. We should all think of the people who don't have a home. These people don't get amazing things like food, drinks and beds. Take just one second out of your day and tell your family you love and appreciate them; your family is something you shouldn't take for granted and always appreciate to have. Your family is you home.
