A Meaning of Home

You may think a house is just a building or a stack of bricks or somewhere to sleep but you are very wrong.A house is Nor a thing or a place it is somewhere you feel loved and comfortable,it is also a feeling or part of your life. Home is not a house,Home is where you feel happy. Home can be anywhere like school, the playground , your friends. It is a privilege. It's not the outside that’s home, it is the Inside where you can feel loved,cared for,happy and feel like you belong. Everyone deserves a home just like me,poor or not . When I go home I see a house where I feel so blessed to have shelter and A family I can count on but I also feel so very guilty for having a house and a loving family when I don’t deserve such a privilege and I hope that others can experience the same feelings. my home is white with shimmering windows with many different vases,painting and varieties of colors ,it’s a place where I will never feel like an outsider and wish for everyone to be able to have that feeling that they belong and can always Know that they will always have somewhere where they are loved and safe. This is what a home is to me but I know it’s very different for others and I hope you've noticed that a home is not just a building or a place it Is somewhere you should always feel loved. I am so happy I could write this essay for Habitat for Humanity and That I got to participate in this great opportunity and share my opinions of what Home means to me.
