A Home Isn't A House

A home isn’t a house! A house is a place with walls and a roof but a home has memories within those walls. A home has pictures, special or ordinary memories. A home is where my siblings fight and where we all love to prank. Abode isn’t just a place, it is where I think of my memories in my little den.Habitat for humanity makes other familie’s homes filled with memories. Home has every emotion you can think of, large or tiny. A “bahay”(home in Filipino) is where I feel free and left out of the judgment of others that I fear. “Hogar” (home in Spanish) is where I feel special and gifted. Home is where I feel I belong. Habitat for humanity helps others have a home and a house.
