What Home Means To Me

What Home Means To Me A house is somewhere that can be used as a home but when it's not it is nowhere near a home. A home is somewhere that you live, make memories, laugh, play and have fun with family. A house is just a building with a roof, walls and a floor. Home should feel and be safe and be able to have privacy for everyone who has a home. Home is not the place you live or the place you sleep or the place you eat, it is the people you are with. A home is a place with laughter and life but a house is as plain as an empty dark hole. The thing that upsets me is that not everyone has a home, family or friends which is sad, because everyone deserves a home. no matter what I think everyone should feel safe, loved and cared for when they are in a home. I really think that everyone deserves a home and that is why I'm writing this not for the prizes, it's for the donations for the people that don't have a home. – Lily.Pernul.
