Home

A lot of people think that a house is a home but they’re wrong. A house is just a building that has nothing but a home is a place where you feel comfortable with a cozy and nice feeling. A home is a place where you feel safe. A house is just a structure with an empty feeling looming over it. A home is like a turtle with a cozy warm inside. And a strong sturdy outside. A home has something a house does not have; love. A home is a place where I feel safe because I think my home is a place I feel safe due to my pets. A home is a place that makes me feel safe because I can just let it all out. A home is a place that makes me feel safe because my home will always protect me from danger. But when I think of the safest place in the world the first thing that comes to mind is my home. A house is just a structure with an empty feeling looming over it. A house is the opposite of a home, a house has no feeling to it. Unlike a house, a home has lots of nice and good feelings. A house is just a structure that has some brick, wood, maybe some metal and other things. Because a house is just a building. When I lived in B.C. I moved houses and it felt so empty at first but I lived there for a few weeks and it felt like home. A house is only a building and it feels empty and unfamiliar there until you make it a home. A home is like a turtle with a cozy warm inside. And a strong sturdy outside. A home is a good comfortable feeling where I feel safe and loved. And a house can be a shack or a mansion but if you don't feel comfortable or safe then it’s not a home. The walls, roof, and doors all of this keeps you safe. And if you don’t feel comfortable or safe then it’s not really a home. A home is made of love and good things, a house is hard and has that empty feeling. Over all a home's best part is the memories you made in it. Habitat For Humanity is an amazing organization that gives families who are less fortunate or who are in need a chance to have a house and allows the family to turn an empty house into a home where they can feel safe and cozy
