This is the meaning of home

The meaning of home is love and care, home is a place where you can be safe, a place where you can feel calm. A home is not just four walls and a roof, it is a place where you can be focused and cozy. It is a place where you can learn from your mistakes, a place where you can feel proud of yourself. A place that keeps you safe from the bad weather. A home is a place where you open the door and feel loved, a home is where you make memories. Where you can play with your family and friends, a place where you cook and share your meals. A place where you can be thankful and where you can celebrate holidays and birthdays. Where you can feel safe to try new things, where mistakes are ok. A place where you feel comfortable. A home is where you or I can say home is where I stay and where I play. Not all people have a home where they can stay and play, where they can sleep and eat. Your home could be a townhouse, a building or a house. A home is a place where you stay warm and sheltered, where you can play with your sisters, or brothers and your mom and dad. A home is filled with love, warmth and serenity Where you are safe and you are loved And where you can be yourself without feeling judged That's why we should make a difference and give everyone a home. I wrote this essay to show what home means and to raise money for people that don't have homes so people like you and me can make a difference in the world and build happiness.
