Home Sweet Home

Home is not just a house where you live. It's a sanctuary where you feel safe, loved and surrounded by laughter. Home is a place where you can be yourself. Home is not like a house; it's fun and entertaining. A home has a lot of familiar scents. Like your mom cooking delicious food in the kitchen for you and your family with a lot of love. She puts in a lot of hard work just to serve you and your family the right nutritious meal every single day. You could definitely get the scents of the beautiful flowers that you and your family members planted together. Home is filled with a lot of memories whether it's a teeny tiny corner. The remembrance of the past on a wall as photo frames which is a beautiful souvenir from the places you visited together. Planting beautiful plants with your family which can be recalled every time! The dining table, where your family sits down and enjoys every meal, enjoys each other's company, and loses themselves in effortless chit chatting with your family. Home is also a place for growth and hard work. Your home is the one place where you can relax and face the new upcoming challenges. Beyond the sights and scents, home is also defined by familiar sounds . Like the rain droplets falling on the roof top where you're safe and tucked inside. Calls of each other from one room to another room are small and unforgettable sounds. This is why having a home is more significant than having a house. Once again thank you so much HABITAT HUMANITY for giving everyone a place to call home.
