How fortunate you are to have a place to call home

You are born in the first home in your life, a hospital. You have just come to a new world to discover How vulnerable and adorable you are. Then, you are taken to a mysterious place, a house. You unlock many possibilities. How capable and promising you are. Day to day, people come and go in the world. Old brown wooden door. The cat meows. Heat blasting from the house. You get loved by your family in a forever hotel. You get kisses from your parents. How spoiled you are. When you get in trouble, parents just let it go. How fortunate you are to have a place to call home. Many people don’t have a forever hotel. Be satisfied with your conditions right now. Some sleep on the street while some sleep on a mattress. How blessed you are. Whenever you feel that you're missing something, How fortunate you are to have a place to call home. Wear your slippers to protect the polished floors. Your parents brought you to the world. Without them, you would be cold and hungry. How fortunate you are to have a forever place to call home.
