What is a home to me?

Home… Not just a word, everything for many! It is a place filled with joy and laughter. A place where I get unconditional love and care from my parents. A place to build memories, I will never forget. Home… A place where I can truly be me. A warm, positive area where I can express anything that is on my mind, knowing that I will always have a family to count on. A place held together by deep connecting memories and bonds nothing can ever break. Home… Where I lay down on the soothing and comforting grass in my backyard, watching the mesmerizing sunset at the end of the day! Where all the emptiness is filled with feelings of love. Home… A place which should be affordable to all. A roof which protects them from everything. A place where everyone is equal. A place everyone should have to call Home. I am thankful to Habitat for Humanity Canada and such organizations that are providing homes for those in need. I hope through this Meaning of Home contest more people will have a beloved place to call home. By Arjunvir Tuteja Grade 5 University Hill Elementary School
