The Meaning of Home

A home and a house are two different things. Let me tell you why. A house could be made out of bricks,with a roof and some walls. While your home is made out of memories with a roof of protection,and walls of love. A house can be a building, while a home is more than just a building. Your home doesn't need to be a place to live in, it could be a place where you love the most and enjoy spending time there. I could come home and smell moms cooking fill the air, and with lots of love and appreciation. If you go into a house you might not feel the same as you would in your home. After a rough and tiring day anywhere, I know I can come home and feel loved and comfortable. Some people's houses aren't their home, their definition of home could be a place which they enjoy spending time there the most, or it could be a place where you feel happy and comfortable. For me my house is a loving place which I feel the most happy and comfortable in, that's why my house is my home. But for other people their house might not be their home, they might not experience the same feeling that they feel in their home. Now I hope you understand the differences and the meaning of a home and a house.
