There are a thousand and one different types of houses and more, but how many of them are actually homes?
Yes, there is a difference.
By definition from dictionary.com, a house is simply a building in which people live; residence for human beings. A home, however, is a place in which one's domestic affections are centered.
You may live in a house, but is it your home? Are you able to be yourself in the place? Are you able to do things in the house without feeling weird? Do you feel accepted in the place?
Sometimes, we all take our homes for granted. We somehow fail to realise that there're so many people out there who would be so willing to take our place, to be given a chance to live in a home where there's love and comfort; to be able to stay so close to your loved ones; to be able to be accepted just the way they are. There are many who have been forced to leave their homes for various reasons: work, education, disasters... Many whose homes have been wrecked by disasters happening.
If we don't cherish this home that we have, one day it will be taken from us. We need to be appreciative and grateful for what we have, so that we can give to those who don't.
One day, I want to build a house as pretty as those above, and call it my home. It's not simply an architectural structure that you're building, it's a family.
