A house is not a home

A house is just a building with a bunch of walls. At home you can make memories in all the halls. A home is a place with joy and laughter. Home is a place that I feel like I matter. If house was a feeling it would be sadness, and loneliness. Home as a feeling would be happiness, and loveliness. House is just a piece of framework with a lot of shiny things that have no memories. Home might just have a couch and a tv, but it has memories in it. Home is a warm and safe environment. A house is an experiment where you can live there as long as you want, but it is not a home until you live with friends and family members you love. Thank you habitat for humanity for helping so many people have homes to live in.
