What is a Happy Home?

What is a home? A building you live in? How is a house different from a home? A house and a home are two different things just like being lonely and being alone. Being lonely means there are people watching you fall but no one will pipe up and stop you from falling but being alone is when there is no one there to even think of catching you. Just like a house and a home are different. A home is a warm place, a place filled with love. You will never fall at home because there are people there who love you and will pick you up just as you begin to struggle in life. You can feel that there is nobody who loves you or cares about you but you are wrong so wrong. Just having a place to come back too at the end of the day and express your feelings and people who will listen to you is someone's way of saying “I love and care about you.” Home to me is a caring and loving family that will do anything just to see you have a smile on your face. Home is a place to live life how you want too and dream, dream big dreams believe you can do anything and not be judged for it. There are a lot of bad people out in the world and home is the only place you can feel safe. So don't be over your head, home is nothing to take for granted because some people don't have homes and you might be thinking “well I would be able to live without a home.” but no you would be able to, you don’t know how much you need things till they are gone.
