My Neighbor

Last Sunday, we shifted our residence to a new Government colony. This colony is inhibited by the employees of the Government. They belong to various departments and ministries. But my next door neighbors are really very fine. One is a Police inspector. He has a small family. His son is a college student. He is a very intelligent boy. He often tells me very interesting stories. The police inspector is also very gentle. His habits and temperaments are very fine, He considers himself to be the custodian of law and order. He never misuses his powers but always helps others. His wife is a lady of religious bent of mind. She is a God-fearing lady. She also extends to us deep co-operation.

The quarter in front of ours belongs to a Principal of a school. He is an old man of 55 and is thoroughly gentleman. His behavior is very nice. He helps the deserving students by admitting them in his school. He gives fee concession to the needy and poor people. He has a medium sized family of two sons and a daughter. They are of helping nature. His daughter is my class-fellow. We go to school together. The Principal loves me very much. Sometimes he gives us very interesting lectures. It is a well-educated family.

The family that lives at the back of our house is a middle class family. But the members of the family are really very disgusting. They do not possess the decorum of a civilized people. The head of the family is an Assistant in Central Government. His behavior is rude. He has quarreled with many people over trifles. His children are very naughty. They beat other tiny children. Their mother is also a terrible lady. She often scolds her children. She being an uneducated lady always creates hell in her house. Everyone in the locality is afraid of her. Most of the people do not have speaking terms with this family.

But a majority of my neighbors are my friends, they are social and of helping nature. I pass my time easily in their company. Neighbors are sometimes helpful than one’s relatives. We would always create a climate of friendship among our neighbors. Thus, I am lucky enough in having good neighbors.
