In outside.

A home is a loved open space with a warm fresh homecooked meal made with love and care and a warm fireplace to be snug and warm instead of the harsh windy cold weather outside. On the other side of the house is a cold wet street with mice and trash overflowing the whole sidewalk with nowhere to sleep or find food and water, starving, hungry, and dehydrated with an empty stomach. Inside is a place with loved people and pets who support us though our life as time passes on in our loved home which keeps us safe though bad things. Outside on the streets there are mean, old, and nasty people giving them a mean scary glare whenever they pass by them and their small, tiny old bed mattress with no blankets to keep them warm in the cold harsh weather. Having a lot of energy and things to keep us safe in our clean, safe house with everything we need and a family that will keep us tougher though the bad and scary things that are happening outside of the house. Some people lost their houses and family during the life of being poor and living on the streets because of the thing that they did to become poor with their life going on that's turning them down with no money or family members with them though their life.
