‘‘Home”

Home. It may be just your “safe haven’’ but to me it means when loved ones are around. Somewhere you feel safe and you can be whoever you want. You should feel a gust of happiness and support the second you walk into your home. You should feel loved and it’s where you can be honest and tell your parents that you failed your math test but they're okay with it. Home is an underused word because everybody should have a home even if your meaning of home is different from what I have described. It's so amazing that the winner of this contest gets to help build a home and then some other family will understand what a home feels like.
