My Home

My home is a safe haven and a comfort zone. A place to live with our families and pets and enjoy with friends. A place to build memories as well as a way to build the future. A place where we can truly just be ourselves. It's the feeling you get in a location, a sense of peace, joy from loved ones or an environment where everyone knows they're welcome. “Home” isn't easy to define, but you know when you're there, you eat and sleep all the time in your bed. you eat in a certain room but if you don't have a bed that's why we are doing this to get you a home to sleep and eat at. It's okay, we will help you get a home. A house is different. A person's most personal belongings are kept in a home and it's where a person feels safe and accepted. A home tells a story and expresses a person or family's interests. To create a home requires an emotional connection and sense of belonging, not physical things. A house can be a home but a home can't be a house. I like my home. If you have a home or house, be thankful. You and I will do this together. I love my home. It's comfy and warm, loving. My Home.
