The difference between a house and a home

The difference between a house and a home is, A home has love, safety, and comfort. A home also has things a house would have such as a roof, walls, a table, and chairs. A house has almost everything you need, but is missing one very important thing. It is missing the love, happiness, and respect that a home gives you. A Home has people that you have good memories with, that respect you, would do anything to be with you and keep you safe and who would respect your decisions. So many people would do anything to have a house, let alone a home, it would change someone's life or lives. These are all reasons why we have to recognize how many people, lots that may be young, old, or with families, who can't afford a home to be protected in. People are striving to get or have a home, where they can be safe, feel protected, get food, and be able to have somewhere to Sleep at night and not be worried or stressed. People just want to be happy living in a safe home! I feel bad for all those people out there that can’t have a home. That is what the meaning of home means to me.
