More than a roof

Home means more than having a roof above me being warm and having a bed every night to sleep in. I'm so grateful that I have water, food and somewhere to sleep everyday. but, the meaning of home to me is family. It's not the right home if there's know family there. If you don't have family where you're living then it isn't right it's not a home. Family is the key to every situation not having money or being rich it's being with family and having the right mind set and nothing else. Look at Bill Gates, does he look really happy having so much money avoiding his family. He never looks very happy with all that money now look at someone like me or something. I'm happy living with family seeing them everyday having a fun time instead of being alone all the time being bored. I just proved that living with your family and believing that you can do it will make you happier and have a better time than being the richest person on earth and being alone without family you will be sad and have nothing to do.That's why you should stay and in a nice cozy with your family than having lots of money in a huge house alone. Home for me in a different form of family in my words.
