The Meaning Of Home

A home is a very safe and special place. Everyone should have somewhere to live, a place to call home. When I go into my home after school I feel safe and happy, I relax on my own bed and read a book. When I pet my cat I can hear her purring away while I stroke her belly, it's very comforting, I don’t know what I would do without my cat. I am very grateful for my home. Imagine you couldn't pay for your home because you didn't have enough money, I bet that happened before. I can’t imagine what it’s like to not have a place to call home. I think a house is different from home. A home is a feeling, somewhere you are safe, a place full of happiness, with all of your belongings. a house is a structure somewhere you look at, not go in. I have two homes. I like having two homes because I have two of the same holidays and two bedrooms. My bedrooms are both very different but all the same, I love them both. I Am very grateful to have a home, if I didn't I would not be here right now, I would not be at school learning, I'm so grateful. everyone should have a happy place to live in.
