The Meaning For a Home

Some people think everyone has a home and that’s partly true but partly false. Say if you’re homeless you still can have a home. I know it sounds weird but people who have been homeless for a while, wherever they sleep and eat and spend their days at, is their home. As long as they feel at home when they're there, no matter if you're rich or poor, have a mansion, a car, or a box it’s still possible to have a home. You don’t need an actual house to have a home. Still, some people don’t have a home though some people don’t feel at home, some people don’t even feel like their house is their home they might think it’s just another place they live in. That’s why everyone deserves a home not just a house but also their house to be their home instead of a car or box. A safe home isn’t just important for your health but also your mental health because an unsafe home could mean someone's abusive or that you have a bad neighborhood either way it can make you stressed, worried, scared and so much more. Not having a home that you feel safe in to go to would feel so indescribable. Just think, some people don’t have a safe home and some people don’t have a home. A home isn’t just a place to eat, sleep and spend your days but it’s also a place to make memories and enjoy your life. A home to me is a cozy place that you live your life in and don’t have to worry about anything ranging from being hurt to losing your home. Hopefully all of you have a safe home too.
