Home and its importance

Imagine you lived in a social housing area, or you did not have proper basic needs? So right now while you are reading this, I am going to be talking about what home means to me and its importance and value. What home means to me is that a home is a private shelter that allows us to have safety, comfortness, and accessibility. A home also helps us create peace and memories. It is like a special place of sanctuary where you live with your family and feel loved and belonged. A home can also provide us independence, support, love, and memories. A home is also safe enough to play, enjoy, and study. A home is a big, special, and a fancy place. A home can also be made of either bricks or wood. A home also contains many rooms, windows, doors, and furnishers. A home can also have basements. Basements are on the lowest floor of a house. People can also live in the basement by paying rent to the owner of the house or the owner itself can keep its own basement. We can also live in a house by paying rent - not just the basement. A home can also store memories. It is a place where we can grow, have better lives and have stability. A home can support us with communication, partnership, neighbourhood, and service - also a place for hope and love. “ It takes hands to build a house, but only hope, love, and memories can create a home”. In conclusion, a home is a private shelter, a place to live along with a place where memories can be stored. Homes are also considered as the structure of lives. We should be thankful that we have more than enough - more than we need our basic needs.
