Home vs House

A home is not a house with four walls and a roof It's where you should feel loved or where you should feel safe.A home is where memories are made and bonds get stronger.Where you can trust everyone around you.Where you gather around whether your watching a movie or a show or even playing games with family.Cheer,Laughter,and Happiness fills the air.A home is where you sit around the dinner table and talk about the days that go by even if there sad days or great days.Its where you feel like you belong and you can be yourself.There is where you want to be.Where peace is found. But a house is a house, yeah sure it has everything you need.Bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and maybe even a living room. But you don't feel safe,loved and you dont trust anyone.You feel scared like you're not enough or you can't be yourself around anyone .Like you can't be yourself.You have no memories. Like you're fighting all the time and you just can't get a break. Like there's no peace in life or in the world. Now thanks to habitat for humanity you can have a Home like everyone else.
