Imagine

Imagine going to someone else’s house for the first time ever maybe you are used to your siblings gentle snoring. Or a fan humming outside your bedroom door. I often wonder about other people. Who might not have a roof over their heads. Or any heat. Where they live. I am grateful to people who work to help them. My wish is that people all over Canada will try to help them. I often think about my autism and how lucky I am to have parents who are willing and able to afford it. I enjoy daydreaming about my future. I know that I will do amazing things. And I am so thankful that I have been granted a good future. Maybe I will have a home of my own someday. Or children of my own. When I am at home I feel safe, loved and needed. When tears flood my eyes they soon fade away because I have people who love me. My family and friends will always be important. this is why home is special to me.
