"True Neighbour"

Unlike others who usually start their first write-up dedicating to their family or friends. Well, I would like to dedicate my first write-up solely to my neighbours!!
Yeah ladies and gentlemen I am talking about none other than our very own people, who can break or make our life.

Neighbours can come in all sizes, packages, and varieties. There can be jealous types who would burn with fumes by looking at your new car. There can be furious types who can go haywire because you threw tennis ball in their compound. And hey, how can you forget the intrusive types, who love to interfere in each and every moment of your life. Come on, it’s their apparent right to be the vital part of you silly life isn't it?

I wonder how I have always been lucky to have intrusive types in my life. This type is my all time favorite (can be the other way round) and I consider they are the only angels in my life. Be it Gupta Aunty who never stopped thinking about my personal life or be it Gopal ji who always been worried about my brother more than my parents.


Often People start their work with the name of Lord Ganesha, I start it with Durga. Yeah, because that’s her name, Durga and she is not just our neighbour, She is the only well-wisher,in our life. Without her I think we would have done nothing (or at least something). She knows about my entire family more than I do. She knows which is the perfect age for me to get married, she knows which is the best hair color for my hair- type (no she is not a beauty specialist, certainly not!).To her opinion I should not wear shorts as I am grown up now (oh yeah?), my mum should cut her hair short (because its IN), my bro should not have invested in mutual funds and the best part is that you don't need to see news channels when she is around. Are you waiting to hear what she has to suggest my dad? You bet,She won't dare to!!


See, isn't she the vital part of my life? Wasn’t she worth enough to talk about? Do you think I am being sarcastic? Bitchy? No, not at all! I want to tell the whole world how lucky I am to have a neighbour like her. In this era where no one has time for each other, it’s hard to find people who care about you unconditionally and who always are there for you even if you are not in a need! Now that's what you call a "True neighbour".Durga aunty, I am glad you are the substantial part of my life,hats off to you!!
