What home holds

Home makes you feel safe and at peace, where uneasy emotions will surely cease. If you want to sit in your emotions, good or bad, your family will leave you be. A home is fulfilling, a place to be free, to unlock your cage with a hard earned key. At home I won’t deny, at home there's definitely ups and downs, but when you finally feel safe, you’ll feel no need to frown. I’m no good at describing things, I’m not that good at all, but maybe if I tell you examples, you’ll feel safe within your walls. I think home is like a blanket covering you from cold. Home holds a feeling that never gets old. Home’s similar to a hug, embracing and warm. Home is somewhere that shields you from storms. That is why I think everyone deserves a home. Thank you Habitat for Humanity, for building homes full of positivity with your hard work and dedication you’ve helped create a better nation. Habitat for Humanity, you’ve planted a seed, towards a better future is what we need.
