A House is Not a Home

A house is just a building, but a home is more than only that. A house may have 4 walls and a roof, but a home is safe, guarded and protected from bad feelings and people. A house may just stand, but a home is full of culture and traditions. A house may be unguarded, but a home is a safe space to be yourself and relax. A house may be a joyless box, but a home is a place to feel different emotions, like happiness to sadness, feeling stressed to feeling relaxed and more. A house is a grey picture alone, but a home is a place of exciting memories to make with friends, family and even pets! A house is hopeless, but a home is full of love. And where there’s love, There’s everything you need. Thank you, Habitat For Humanity for providing us whith shelter! -Veronica
