Never make your home in a place. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You'll find what you need to furnish it - memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other such things. That way it will go with you wherever you journey.

Communities which are far away from your living style are always stereotyped, reduced to certain significant aspects. In case of the slums, a community which divers in its standard of living, the slums stand for poverty, unbearable living and the end of everything.  The perception is based on Definitions, Journalism and representatives, such as Habitut. Thereby people use their own standard of living as measurement. That is money, economical system and living circumstances. Based on their standard of desirable way of living.

Aspects such as emotional belonging, security, and social interaction are not considered within the measurement. Routinely life, economical circulation, independent living and autonomic system not included. Thereby bearing in mind people’s perspective, self awareness, individuality and responsibility is too far away.

Reason is a building up a stereotype, which is not just generalizing and patronizing, but also degrading and a disrespectful interaction of a community.
