Being our neighbours’ keepers

“I hear a lot of people say that you don’t mind your neighbour business and that is better to keep to yourself. For me I don’t get wrap up with my neighbours but saying morning and good afternoon is important. And if I see anything with the children, like them doing something wrong I would tell their parents.

“That is not wrapping up but we must look out for each other. And that is how I get to find out that two of my neighbours had so much troubles,” a sister talking to me recently shared.

“I was hanging out clothes one day and I noticed a child with school clothes on my neighbour’s steps. She was sitting and I said to myself maybe she got sent home back with the teachers’ strike and all. Now they had only recently moved in and so I was not clear about who was living there.
