----------------------
We as human beings live in a society and we are all social creatures. All of us have some neighbors and in turn we are neighbors to them. We all as neighbors reside nearby or adjacent having one common wall or a fence. We communicate with our neighbors and so they do. Everyone would like sensible and trustworthy neighbors. Good neighbors try and help each other how best one can and solve problems with mutual help. Neighbors must be reliable, honest, trustworthy, and cooperative. In-turn neighbors would also have expectation of equal reciprocation from our side.
While we may be residing too far away from our parents, brothers, sisters and close relatives or friends, depending upon our work and business location and demands, however the neighbors are the people who live nearest to us. Hence in any unforeseen and uncalled for contingency like our sickness, an accidental injury it is the neighbor who comes forward and helps us the most. Here I am reminded of an old proverb
“A Good Neighbor Is A Priceless Treasure”.
Nowadays people live in the apartments and the apartment culture has changed the scenario of neighborhood. Now instead of interacting face to face people prefer to converse on telephone or the cell phone or internet even for that matter. This culture has reduced the personal touch in human relation. Hence individuals have turned out to be quite reserved and introvert. People do not like that their neighbors’ disturb, annoy and cause troubles to them or they unnecessarily interfere in their personal matters.
In conclusion some good qualities of a neighbor are reliable, honest, trustworthy, and cooperative. At the same time we too must equally reciprocate for an everlasting fast friendship.
