Home is More Than Just a Home

Home is not just a place, it’s my safe spot.Every time I communicate with my family I feel joy inside.I feel all the support from all my family. They listen to me and let me speak. They’re very understanding even though sometimes I make bad choices.Every time I have a bad day at school, when I come home I feel calm and safe because there’s no one around, it’s just me and my thoughts.When I’m with my family in the living room playing games or watching a movie, there’s always laughter and happiness.Every time I step in my house I feel like I’ve never left.Every time I do something bad to someone , when I get home, I reflect on what I did and I tell my self I’m never doing that again because every time I’m home I feel like I could talk to my self and be happy.Every time I’m really unhappy with my friends or family I walk back to my room and I feel good.I just need to be alone when I have a bad day. Thank you to Habitat for Humanity for making this happen for other people too.
