EVERYBODY NEEDS A HOME

EVERYBODY NEEDS A HOME BY SOMI WILLIAMS Let's be honest we all need a home. From garbage to a piece of paper, and even though it’s just my family, and me, it’s perfect. First, a home has memories have you ever walked down the hallway and see pictures of you your siblings, and your parents. Or on your bed, you find all your stuffies. I have so many. A big pink bunny called Rebeca a blue dolphin named Dolphi and a snow leopard called Atlas I’ve moved everywhere with them since I was 7. Secondly, a home makes you grow healthy. Imagine having another exhausting day and you walk home, but nothing’s there, so you keep walking Then you see a nearby dumpster and your mom is there digging in the compost for food for you to eat. If you eat that you will get sick. That is why you need a home, because without a home you won't be able to cook or wash your food, and without food, you cannot grow. Finally, a home has love and care. Think of this: you go home and when you walk inside your parents start yelling at you saying stuff that hurts your feelings. How would you feel? I would feel like no one loves or cares about me, and that's not a good feeling. I would rather have a family that loves , and cares about me for who I am. I think you would too. By reading this, you know that a home provides love, and care, helps you grow, and is welcoming. By reading this article you will remember. Everyone needs a home.
