Home Is?

Home is way different than a house. A home is where we make memories with our friends and family. Home is also where everyone is having fun and laughing. A house is just a building that is a shelter. It just keeps us safe from the weather. But home is where we love and we want to be there forever. Home is where we feel safe and feel like we have a good comfortable neighborhood. Home is where we have good neighbors and have a good connection to them. A house is what we sleep in and do almost everything in. But you might not feel most comfortable in it. You also might not like it as your previous house where all your memories are made and where you were living with your whole family. Your home is where you were living with your family and memories. A home is where you had your most fun and maybe where there were the most friends around. Home is where you learned how to walk and home is also where you grew up. Home is where we would do family games. A house is where you currently live but your home is in your heart and somewhere else in the world. A house is a human built building you may not enjoy it there but it is still your house but home is your favorite place to be. You often hear parents say it's good to be home when they go to where they grew up. That's where they had many memories and they can go on with many stories of their childhood and all the good and bad memories that turn into amazing stories about their home. When I am older I will be telling stories about memories that I had from my home. That's the difference between a house and a home.
