The Meaning of Home

All of my neighbours are from somewhere else. But when they came to Canada they were all looking for the same thing, home. They all came to Canada because they lost their homes. When they first arrive, they are sad and weary, but in time, they become hopeful and settled. The key ingredient is love from the community of the other neighbours; love is one of the most important things for a home. So, l guess it is not the structure that makes a home what it is, but the people inside and how they make us feel.
