Most houses have a garden ，even if it is a small one，and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for him or her and for invited friends.

People usually like to make their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you ; on the train you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you ; in a library you may spread your books around you .
