What Makes a House a Home

A home is not just buildings with walls, a roof and windows. It's somewhere where you can be honest with yourself. There are many different elements that make a house a home. The calming feeling of peace, the togetherness, and the sweet sound of laughter that fills my ears, as we spend happy memories together. The safety and comfort of my home makes me feel relaxed and calming, no reason to be alarmed. In a home, there are many happy memories and joyful moments that make a house a home. You will always be welcome in your home. A home is a place of peace, love, joy, family, laughter, comfort, safety, honesty and happy memories with your family and peaceful moments. It's true that there is sometimes chaos and unnecessary commotion, but there is still love lingering in my home whatever happens. All of those things are what make a house a home. Habitat for humanity is helping homeless people and children, giving them a home they can live in and call home. Thank you for making this happen.
