Home is not just a house

Home is not just a building, It's a place where you feel comfort that nowhere else has. A house is a place where no comfort is felt, where memories have not yet been made. Your home makes you feel at ease, calm, peaceful, the prime spot where memories are created. A house is a home without that feeling of nostalgia, it's a feeling that warms your heart. It's true when they say “home is where the heart is”. Home is a place where we feel like we belong, a house doesn't have all that, a house doesn't have that feeling of love, comfort, and belonging. Home is a place to love, cry, and feel accepted. A house doesn't make you feel that way, but a home does.It is a place to be when you have nowhere else to go, when times are tough, when nothing goes your way, home is always there. It doesn't matter if you live in a house, apartment, in the suburbs or a townhouse, as soon as you feel love, joy, or comfort, it's a home. That's the true meaning of home.
