Home Home should be a safe and comfortable place. When I am not feeling good at school, I want to go home. Everybody, and I mean everybody should have a space of their own. Where we sit and chat, where we read, we play, we dance, we bake, we are at home. I am currently typing this message at home, in my own space. I eat at home, sleep at home and relax. So to everyone that might be reading this, be aware of these people, these homeless people, and listen. Think of all the things that they are missing. Think of all the subjects you do at your home, and that homeless or poor can't. Nobody should have a lifestyle like that, so listen and respond. Be aware and don't walk away. I know a lot of people that pass by the homeless and say something like “get a job!” Or “disgusting”. Guess what? When you try to get a job you have to put your location into that application, but do you think they have an address? No, they don't. When we say “disgusting” do they have a shower? No, they don't. Sometimes our actions can affect a person's life. I know that home means everything to me, and everyone deserves to have one.
