What home means to me

Home is not really a place; a house has walls and a roof, but a home is different. A home is people, where your family lives, where all your belongings are, where you have this one place in the world that is just yours. Home is a place where you feel safe, loved and a place where you belong. Home is where I can speak my language, be myself and I don’t have to get embarrassed because of stuped things/reasons. Plus home is where most memories are created, they being happy or sad. At home is also where I help and play with my sister. I love her even when she is angry at me or I at her. I love my whole family, always no matter what. Home is where I celebrate different celebrations such as birthdays with my family and friends. And home is also a place where me and my friends like to spend time together. And there are many people who don't have a home to live in and Habitat for Humanity helps those people by giving a warm cozy home for them to live in and create happy memories like me and my family.
