The Meaning of Home

Home is not just some other place, It is a place filled with memories, love and peace. It is a place that, if you were to leave, You would miss the smell. A house is just a place you can build out of snow or sand, But a home is built with memories, Joy, love and happiness. A house is a place with decor, But a home has photos of family and friends, And of memories. A house is not a home, But a place where you feel loved, safe, and cared for. A house just sounds like creaking floors and doors, but a home sounds like laughter, peace, and joy. Thank you, Habitat for Humanity, for building houses for people in need who do not have homes and need them.
