Meaning of Home

The meaning of home to me is a place where you live, eat, sleep, play, a place where you can cook food and you have most of your memories at home. Memories like your first steps, your first words, the place you were born, and lots of other memories. But some people don't have a home, where they can have all these wonderful memories in a clean and safe space. They have to either live in a really old house where you can trip or fall, and get hurt a lot, or they live somewhere on the ground where it is pretty bumpy and they barely get any sleep. Some people sleep on the ground, barely get food and when they do they don't have a clean place to eat. They don't have many toys to play with and they live a pretty small life all because of car crashes and robberies. But people like us can help and build more houses that people can live in. I am very grateful for my home where I can have fun in a safe space.
