THE MEANING OF A TRUE HOME

Home is not just four walls and a roof to me it is a utopia that everyone should have where I am cared for and I can be myself. It's a loving place nurturing hopes, dreams, beliefs bringing me happiness and joy. Practicing baseball with my brother and father. My mom making waffles “ Truly a golden treasure.”Home’s shelter me and my family from the dangers of the world. Sheltering me and my family from the icy cold winter or cooling us down when the sun roars its loudest. Home is a place with reliable trusted people that can and will help you without any hesitation. Home is a giving place celebrating traditions, cultures or just common holidays for fun. Waking up on christmas morning opening and giving gifts along with eating scrumptious foods with friends and family and loved ones. Helping each other not hoping for anything in return. While I run with my brother and dog playing in the snow during the icy cold winter, throwing snow in each other's face SPLAT! Playing video games with my brother “Let's go, I won!” Home is the safest environment that exists, sometimes I wonder how It's even real. Thank you habitat for humanity for helping people and giving them a reason to go on by giving them a home
