My Meaning of Home

Hi, I'm Alivia. Do you know the difference between a house and a home? Probably not, but the difference is pretty simple! Basically, a house is four or more walls with furniture inside. A home is a feeling. Inside is a place where you can be yourself, not a person someone else wants you to be. You can be quiet, sad, happy or loud, and everyone will still love you to bits and pieces. Meanwhile, a house is a doorknob, windows, flooring, walls, furniture and a roof. My home and other people's homes have a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. For other people it might be a different feeling, but those feelings are always good. My home's feeling is the smell of homemade cookies and chaos going on all the time. In the end, I'm always left with good memories and a family.
