Home is a Feeling

Home is one of the most important things but so many people live in a house or sometimes they have no where at all or nothing at all so that is why I’m writing today A home needs a lot of support and a lot of trust but my house has loads of support and sometimes little to no trust My house is not perfect, we fight, we cry and we don't see eye to eye, but one thing is for sure we will always care for each other My house doesn't always feel like a home, that is why it matters so much to me that Habitat for Humanity is giving people homes where they can grow a life and make happy memories That being said, one thing I do not like is acting, acting like everything is ok, showing up for school where you have to put a big smile up on your face because sadly it is what is expected of you. Even if you just had a big fight at home. Home is about so much more than just a building, it is about love and hope and having faith in others. Home is a feeling of love all around and also a feeling that you can trust and grow from bad times and moments, but saying that, home also means that there will be bad feelings and those ones will hurt because if someone feels bad at home, I believe that they should be able to speak their mind. So that is why it is always so important to always look out for each other and lift each other up because you don’t know what they are going through at home or how much that can affect them.
