What Home Means To Me

A home is a space of peace, a pocket of protection. A home is a place where you can feel welcomed, where you can do what you want. The possibilities are endless. Homes are simple, but amazing things: Walls, floors and a roof; there’s nothing that it doesn’t have when you need it most. A home is a place of nostalgia, a place of wonder. A home is a place where you can live your dreams. Everybody deserves a home, whether it's in the thick blue ridges of a mountain, or the beautiful greens of the grass. Your home is a place for everybody, no matter what anybody thinks. Homes can be a prestigious thing, though, something some families can’t afford. Some people may get abysmal pay for their hard work, and live paycheck to paycheck. Poverty is a serious thing that has to be dealt with, as a community, as a country. All homes are equal, big or small, any culture or habitat. A home is one of the most important things in one's life. A home shares it’s life with the people within, however you treat it, it treats you the same back. Anybody that has a house, has a place where they store their belongings or a place where they sleep after a day's work; But, a home is different. A home is a place where you have the freedom to do whatever you want. Your home emanates with you, keeps you company during a storm or a rough week. Thank you, Habitat Humanity.
