Home not just a house.

One day,a rich man is drunken and a policeman asked him to go home. But the rich man said:"Home?I don't have a home." Then the policeman pointed at a villa and said:"Sir,what it is?" "It's my house."the rich man answered. "I will take you home." "It's my house,not home."the rich man said and cried. In this world,most of people think home is a house.However,if there is no love in the house,do you think it's a home still?

There is a difference between a house and a home. A home is a place you want be a place you want to come back to when you have been away. It is safe and warm and comfortable. A house is just that. It is a place to stay if you have to but there is no love of it. It is a cold and sterile place that you are not in a hurry to come back to.

Hello and hi my friend Adoniah. Yes,i agree with you.House just a house,has no warm,safe and comfortable for a family. But home is a house at first.When a house has fullfilled with the love and warm,then it can be called home.So home's significance is more abstract than house,right? Good luck.
