Home with a Heart

Home is the coziest word ever. I love it because everybody deserves to have a roof over their head. Home is just a structure but family friends and memories make it cozy. My home is in a safe and welcoming neighborhood. That means that I can walk to school on my own. Whenever I walk into a house I don't feel the same way about walking into my own. I know that a lot of refugees are coming over to Canada and it’s really lucky to have habitat for humanity to make houses for them. Also, I think it’s really nice to have habitat for humanity to help these refugees and people in need of a house. It’s really important for everyone to have a home. Next, home is a place to feel respected and it’s where I will always be welcome. Home is a place of relaxation and privacy. Home is to be loved by friends and family. Then, we live in a free country where everyone has a right and a voice. I am very lucky to live in Canada. Meanwhile, home is to make mistakes and learn from them. Home is to be silly and do fun stuff with your friends. Home is to experiment and be free in your own space! My home is full of memories. For example: almost every weekend my grandparents come over for dinner and we tell jokes and tell stories. I alway love welcoming friends and family into my home it always feels so exciting and fun. To sum it up, I think that everyone deserves to have a home and I very much like this project of habitat for humanity.
