What happened in the future and in the past

My house means alot to me because I was in my house for about 3-4 years and I felt bad for the homeless people because they sleep in the streets 24-7. In my opinion everybody is supposed to have a house. I like the walls that are covering us from the freezing cold and I like the roof that is covering us from the rain. I like the freshwater you get from the sink. I like the rooms where you can have your free space . My house is a safe place where my family loves me every way. I like decorating my house so it can be beautiful. I open the window to look at the shining sun, I look at night to see the beautiful stars. I like to play games with my sisters in the basement. I watch my house getting fixed so I can learn so if I grow up maybe I can fix houses. I like to have pillow fights because they are so soft that when I get hit, I get my pillow and I fall down on the pillow and pretend I'm sleeping My home in Canada is special to me because one time I was kicked out of my house in Syria because there was a war. It was in the middle of the night and I had to leave. I had no house and it was so cold. We wanted to go back but we had no choice until I went to Jordan by running. I feel so bad because I thought my house was a safe space. We found a building. It was the next month then we were called to come to Canada. Then we went to canada and we found a house and we really liked it. My sister and I shared a room then I wanted my own bedroom. After a couple months I got my own bedroom but I had nothing to play with so I wanted to go back to my last bedroom. I chose to try staying in my new room to sleep on my own, I got used to it even if I had no toys. I'm grateful for everything I have.
