My Meaning Of “Home”

In Canada the tax is coming even bigger than before which isn't good and that's why there are more homeless people in Canada than before. It's awful nothing is affordable anymore, it's all too expensive. And that’s why I love where I live and where I am now. I appreciate everything I have because I know a lot of people don’t have it. I don't ask for many things and especially things that are over cost. One time I went to a little street gathering and I saw so many tents on the grass I felt so bad I even saw a little girl asking her mother for things and her mother kept on saying no, the girl was so sad. My family is there to help me when I need it and keep my head up when it's leaning the wrong way. They catch me when I fall and keep my hopes up. My family is very loving. We work together to fix our mistakes and help keep the house up from destruction together. My family makes and buys me things that are nice all the time. My mom always asks me first what she should make for food when we finish the other. My family gives me a hug and kiss when I need it to help me regain my confidence when it's leaving and to make me feel better about what I have done. My family is very loud for many reasons. My dog barks for her life at night when we are sleeping or just at random times for no reason at all sometimes there is a reason but barely ever. My family speaks louder every second because they can’t hear what they say or what the person says to them. I am very loud as well. My brother cries a lot because we take his phone away but when he has it he's louder it’s very annoying. My family is safe because they care. My family holds me tight when I am scared so I don’t cry. My family comforts me with love and energy from the bottom of their hearts all I hear is “ I LOVE YOU “. My family cooks me food and makes sure it's healthy for my safety. My family makes me feel safe with their words and their touch. My house is a safe place and a loving place and an especially loud place that's why I love my house and family so much. Without My family there would be no home!
