What home means to me

Home means to me a place to stay where no else can come, having your words come out and your mind dream all you want. With this home you can be free from everything and everyone. I know how it feels to be safe and free. It is amazing but others need to feel how I feel so they can feel safe and free too. Your home matters and welcoming those who need one will warm their hearts. Those who can’t afford their house move away but they don’t only lose their items but they lose the happy memories they had in their home. With more homes people will have a place to be dry, be safe, be free and have a place to call home. Also with more homes people will be able to make more memories with their family and some new friends. In the spring , the winter, the fall and summer everyone needs a home not a tent but a house big or small it does not matter. Even with a mouse in their house they will be happy to have a place to live with their family. On the streets in a home no matter where you are you will always be welcomed and free to are home Thank you to those who build the houses in my community. It means a lot. I also want to thank my community for giving me a place to live with my family so I think it is time I return what my community has given me and get more homes for those who need one. This is a short essay but I think that it is good enough to be able to get more homes for my community.
