A House is Not a Home

A house is shelter but a home is love. A home is warmth, a house is a building. To me a house is the shelter where I live, but a home is my family. I love my house but it's not a home. A home is much different than a house. A home is a safe, peaceful place. I appreciate my family because they are home. A house can be warm but not as much as a home. I wish everyone had a warm home but unfortunately not everyone does. I am so grateful to have a safe warm house to stay, and my family makes it a home. A house can be cozy, but not as cozy as a home. A house is where you make memories, but a home is the special memories. A house is not as good as a home but it's where you can stay warm. My school is like my second home because everyone here is so kind. A home is where you can be yourself. My home makes me feel loved and I can be goofy. I wish this universe was amazing and everyone had a house and a home. People should be grateful for what they have. Everyone should be loved by their family, or someone. Habitat for humanity are amazing, kind, loving people. A house is where you can sleep, but a home is where you can live your best life. I love home, I love my house. All I wanted to say was, I wish everyone has loving, caring, peaceful, safe, kind, people to stay with in a house. Hopefully a house turns into a home for everyone. Thank you habitat for humanity for fixing people's houses and making them warm, safe, calming, homes.
