The Meaning of Home

A house is something you build but a home is something you create. A house has a fireplace but a home has a crackling fire. A house has paint but a home has color. A house is where you live but a home is where you share memories. At your home you should feel loved and safe where you're comfortable to be yourself! A house is something you buy or rent from strangers. A house is a building with walls and halls. A house is empty, uncomfortable and boring. A house has no memories or love. A house is sad but a home is happy. Thank you Habitat for humanity for making everybody’s house a home!
