A Home Is A Home

A home is a home and a house is a house. A house may have four walls and a door but a home will always have much more. A house has stuff and things galore but a home has things you can't buy in a store. Everyone knows a house can be grand but a home is a place where we stand hand in hand. A house may be in fancy conditions but a home is a place where we have traditions. A house can be expensive with chandeliers up above but a home is a place where you really feel love. A house can have strangers, people you don't know but a home has a family and friends who love you so. A house can have animals like skunks or raccoons but a home has your pets that really love too. A house may be built of wood, bricks, and stone but a home is a place that you call your own. A house can be big, with fancy things on the walls but a home is a place where you love one and all. A house can have fancy couches, chairs and desks but a home is a place where you are fine to make a mess. Now it is time for my final conclusion. A house is a place but a home is a feeling. A feeling that makes you feel safe and loved. No matter how fancy a house can be, home is a place with your family. A house is a place, a home is a feeling. A home is a home and a house is a house. And everyone deserves to have a home.
