House vs Home

I think that a house is just a shelter but a home is where you thrive in and where you are happy and healthy. A home is where you feel welcome and like you belong. A house is not quite as wonderful as a home - you might not feel as welcome or loved, you may not feel that belonging that you do in a home. Houses are not so cozy. These are some different things that make a house a house, and a home a home.
