A House verses A Home

There are so many beautiful houses I pass by and wonder; “is it a house, or a home?” The lights are on, furniture sits on the porch, the lawn is perfectly manicured and people go in and out.

However, I wonder, no, I hope, the houses are homes that have good cooked meals, fun family gatherings and much laughter. I hope their homes are filled with the abundance of peace, love and joy. I hope they will keep the lights on.
