What Does Home Mean to Me?

A crawling mouse is a part of a house, an empty space is not a fun place. When I walk in it doesn’t feel like it could be my home, with belongings that I own. Once I move in I see my bed, my dresser and my shelf move into my new room. I grab my broom and clean the new floors and the doors. My home doesn’t need to look nice, it's what goes on inside that matters the most. Your house doesn’t have to be big as long as you are safe with the people you love. I wake up every morning and see my family, they are the reason I call my house my home. Some people don’t have a house but it doesn't mean they don’t have a home. Some people don’t realize that and aren’t grateful, the least you can do is be grateful for what you have.
