A house and a Home

A home is more than just a couple of walls, it is where love is built and where you can feel trusted every second of the day. Home means a lot of things to me, it is where I go when I feel discouraged or lonely. My parents are always there for me when I feel that way. A house is just a structure, it has furniture and amenities. It will never beat the smell of fresh baked cookies and cream, hot chocolate on a cold winter night, and a warm baked apple pie. Home is a safe haven where you can be yourself and enjoy the comfort of love from parents and siblings. A house is a place where you sleep. It might have a TV, a desk, and maybe even a pool. But a home has family, love, and joy. Home keeps together the Immense size of a family’s heart that could not be broken. A home should never have to be a bad place to be with yelling, fighting, and arguing, it should only be a place where you are loved and feel trustworthy to your family. A house usually isn't always impeccable but you should always be thankful for what you have and how lucky you are to be a person on planet earth. You may not always get along with your parents or siblings but they hold a special place deep into your heart no matter what. Thank you Habitat For Humanity for building houses for the families in need.
