Home

The meaning of home: Well to put it simply, home is a nice, safe, place. But to go more in depth, home is a place where you can have fun with your family and friends. I want everyone to have a nice home. Not even to have much furniture, just a nice place to stay, and feel loved, safe, and warm. I always complain how cold I am, but when I put it into perspective, I see how lucky I am to have a home, while others don’t even have a jacket in the freezing temperatures. I’m grateful for even just having a nice family, that I can feel like I can talk to. I love all the memories I've made with my family and friends. That’s a normal life for some, but for many, it’s a luxury! Everybody should be able to have a home and do fun things in and around it! But not everybody can. I hope that soon, having a nice home is a reality for everyone and everywhere. By the end of 2023, I hope this problem starts to get solved and that more people have a nice place to live. As mentioned, everybody should have a home, but unfortunately, not everybody does. I pray for those who don’t have a home, and they can get one soon. I don’t even care if I win, I’m just happy to know that just by writing this, I can donate $10 to somebody in need.
