Home is the place where you feel comfortable in your own skin, home’s a community with rules and extreme trust. The place in which you can have fights and be forgiven shortly after, every mistake an opportunity to create embarrassing yet lovely memories. The place to celebrate your achievements and be comforted after Losses. A house is living in a building but having a home is living in a dream. A dream where everyone's hearts sparkle with happiness and joy. A home where you would make the biggest sacrifices for those people within your home. A home that will never expire. Every home’s drawers, cracks and corners filled with adoration and empathy. The place to grow together and create bonds with the people inside your home, teaching you life lessons and deep affection. The home you spend braiding your siblings hair, cooking with your dad, playing with pets, watching movies with your family or reading with your mom, almost every moment spent together. If you were to buy a house it would have a price tag but if you were to buy a home it would be a promise. A promise to always forgive, a promise to always be willing to make sacrifices. A promise to forever love and give care. Home is the source of warmth, happiness, empathy and devotion. Every home has a heart, and that heart is the family Inside it.
