A House is not a Home

A house may have a basement with a picture of a white dove, but a home is a feeling, full of never ending love. A house may have a front lawn, with a nice garden gnome, but as long as you’re at home, you will never feel alone. A house may have a big kitchen, with a marble big marble counter, but a home is where you can be you, no matter how many things you will encounter. A house may have gold plated toilets and tons of gold, but a home has a family, young or old. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for making hundreds of people turn a house into a home, just like mine.
