A home means more

When you’re in a house, you don’t get the same feeling Because when you’re in a home, it all comes from believing Believing more on what is inside And less on the design and the looks from the outside A house can be for anyone, not necessarily for you But a home means more, it means you can be you A home is where you will always belong A home is where no one will judge you if you’re wrong A home is somewhere you’ll always be accepted But in a house you’ll never be sure that you're respected A house can be lonely with nobody there A house can be a structure, but it can also be bare A home can mean many different things To some people, it might mean binge-watching movies with kings To others, it might mean wrestling with your brothers Either way, a home is where you have fun The type of fun that is never done Thank you, Habitat for Humanity for helping everyone in need. Everyone who needs a place to call “home”, because everyone deserves a home, not just a house.
