A house and A home

People keep on saying that a house and a home are totally the same with no differences. But for me? There is a big difference between them. A house is built with bricks, strong walls, and a strong roof to protect us from bad weather and always strong doors and windows to protect us from robbers. A house always protects us, at any cost. A home will never ever be forgotten by the owner. A home is built differently, not like a house. It was built with feelings, love, memories, and happiness with meaningful childhood memories. Home is a place where families gather, share a dinner table to eat, and talk happily together as a family full of love. A house is a place on earth that protects us at any cost. Or if it's broken apart, at least it protects us. A house always protects us even if it’s destroyed, it will always be proud of itself that it protects its owners. So, the house that we live in always has a dream of protecting you. A home is where there is your family, it doesn't matter if you don’t have one, that place is the only place that warms your feelings and feels comfortable in. When you grow up, you will start to know that a home is a place where there is your loving family, your childhood memories that will never be forgotten. Whenever you get home when you're still a child, you will always remember the smell of fresh cooked food that your mom makes, it always is delicious, that taste of food is a taste that can never ever be remade. That home you live in with your loving family will stay in your heart forever.
