“A House is Not a Home”

When we differentiate a house from a home, usually we say that the house is merely an architectural output, a building perhaps. And a home is usually a house inhabited by people, usually a family, where one can find peace, love, and security. A dictionary would define house as “a building made for people to live in, usually designed for a family” and home as “the place where you live”.

To me, a home is a haven to go to after a day filled with ups and downs. A happy home is a place where the ugliness of the outside world cannot penetrate your feeling of safety.
