Everyone Deserves a Home

I believe that everyone should have somewhere to call “home”. It could be an apartment, house, or maybe the streets, Somewhere they could rely on. A house is not a home. A house could be considered a home, but in some cases not. In a house it may be scary or uncomfortable while on the other hand a home should feel safe, secure and comfy. A house may include furniture and nice clothes but a home should include clean floors and comfy beds and most importantly lots of love. A home is somewhere you want to be. To me my home is like a habitat that I could hide in when I don’t feel like coming out, it's like my own hobbit hole. Although I come out I will always come back to the same place. I’ve been to many hotels but none feels like home. My house is full of my family, my dog, and all my favorite little knickknacks that I collect. My dad makes me laugh, fixes my stuff, and stops my crying. My mom gives me excellent advice and also makes me laugh. My siblings keep me entertained, everyday. My home expresses who I am, for example my room. It's like an explosion of my personality. My home is my safe spot from everybody in the outside world, other than my family. My family makes any house, my home. I believe everyone deserves a home. Everyone should have a comfy bed to sleep in and doors that keep them safe. In conclusion I hope more houses will be built in order to give more people the necessities they need.
