A Home is Not a House

There's a big difference between a home and a house. A home is a place where you feel safe, happy and calm. But a house is a place where you just go to sleep. A home has joy in the air, smelling like flowers. A house has just four walls and a roof. But, a home is a place where you can let out all your emotions without being judged, and everybody will be there for you. A home often has a dog or a cat. No matter what you like or want, you should feel safe in your home. You can have many homes. It could be your grandparents' home, or any place that feels safe to you. It is where you learn valuable lessons that will stay with you for the rest of your life. This is my meaning of home.
