What Makes a House a Home?

What makes a house a home? What makes a house a home? A house is a place made for people to live in, a home is a safe and stable place where someone can life comfortably, with family, roommates, or just by themselves if they want. Home is a place you can go after you’ve had a bad day, where you can cuddle up on the couch and know you’ll be okay. You can go to sleep in bed resting your head, relaxed knowing that you’re safe. A home is where you can freely express yourself, celebrate your culture, and holidays and have happy memories with family. Being healthy and strong enough to live in a home independently with easily accessible food and water but most importantly, being loved in your home and knowing you are loved. Everyone should be fortunate enough to have families big and small being there for you and supporting you. Home should be a place to live not a place to just survive. I am very grateful I get to watch tv, sleep, or study, eat a nice meal and be happy whenever I like. Everyone deserves a home, no matter where you come from, whether tall or short, with families big and small. Thank you to Habitat for Humanity for giving many families a place to call home.
