What is a Home?

A home isn’t just a house. A house can be granted, A home can not. A home has memories and pictures, A house does not. Home is where you feel truly safe, and love is being shared. It's where imagination takes flight, that are one of a kind. You feel warmth, happiness, and joy. There were emotions, Either good or bad, A house has four walls, a roof and some furniture, There's no love, no emotions, Only silence. A home is decorated, and it’s deeply loved, It's where you’ve played games and shared jokes, It's where you’ve exchanged gifts and silly notes. A house is like a “pizza” with only a base. You need to add the toppings to make it an actual pizza. A house is the same, You need to decorate it, love it, and care for it. Even if you don’t have a house, it doesn’t mean you don’t have a home. You will always have a place you loved and cared for. But truly home is a feeling of belonging, Not limited to a four-walled building. Everyone deserves a home.
