What home means to me

Home is where I feel loved and cherished, where people are supposed to be cared for. Since I have a home I want to offer other people a home to live in and be loved. Shelter is important if someone is left out in the rain they could catch a cold and trust me I know how that feels. I’ve gotten a horrible cold before. We all think life is easy going in your kitchen making food staying on your couch but have you ever thought about people who don’t have homes, people who live in the dark scary night with no blankets or shelter. I don’t know how it feels to not have a home but I know it probably feels horrible and I want to help people that’s why I joined this challenge the ipads and prizes don’t really matter because I know everybody deserves a home and I want to know people have places to live and that I was part of that reason they have homes. Even if I don’t win I want to know that I did something to help other people because I want to improve on being a better person this year so thank you for this opportunity.
