Meaning of Home

You are a very lucky person. You know why? Because you have a house. A lot of people around the world don't have houses and have to live in very dangerous places, like alleyways and places near roads. They don't have very good clothes and they have to beg for money just for a small meal. You don't even need to run to a store to get food, you already have a fridge full of fresh food. I will be talking about the meaning of home with you. First, your house protects you from danger because your walls are made of strong solid concrete. Your roof is made out of asphalt shingles with a lightning protection system. Your floor is made out of polished wood. And you have a fence. Some people have to survive in tents that are made out of cloth that’s being held up by sticks. And sadly some people have to lay on the ground. Next, Your health is something that is controlled depending on how you treat yourself because if you cut yourself, and the cut gets infected, that is not healthy for your body. you have to put stuff on it like tap water which we already have in our house. Some people don't have a choice because they don't have enough money. In conclusion, homelessness is not a safe way of living, because living without a house can be very dangerous for anyone. In my opinion, everyone should have a home and feel comfortable and safe away from any danger instead of dangerous places. No one deserves to live in places like that so this is your chance to donate to Habitats For Humanity so everyone can have a home and feel safe with their families. I hope everyone has a home in the future.
