A Home is Not a House

A house is a building with 4 walls and a door. When you enter a house it feels the same as outside. A home is as cozy as the comfiest blanket on earth. When you go inside you become yourself, A house is the smell that can be everywhere, Like the store that sells paint. A home is the smell of pancakes, on a lazy Sunday morning. When you think of a house, It’s just a building. But when you think of a home, it’s a full story of wonderful memories: Like when it’s your birthday, Or maybe when you finally got to sleep after a long day, If you have a home, You know how it feels, happy, cozy, safe, and comfortable. But a house feels, Lonely, sad, unsafe. And sometimes it doesn't even have feelings. Many people, don’t have a home, And that's why we should help them. With Habitat for humanity We can help people to find homes.
