You're on point! Not all houses can be a home. Some are just shelters but do not have the comfort and meaning a home has.
It is like not all parents are like mothers and fathers. Just because you have a child doesn't make you a mother or a father. It is the kind of love you give to your child that makes you as such. That is why we often see other people as family even without blood relation because of what they mean to us.
That is a nice Connection you made here.
Thank you. You're too kind. :)
