Hello readers. Welcome to @etteuwad 's blog. When living and talking about your neighborhood, it's obvious more than just the houses and all, it's about those people that are living there. My next door neighbor is my landlord and his family, just his wife and beautiful daughter zara. Meeting my Landlord Mr Benson had been the best gift of life. I have lived in my neighborhood for almost 7 years and sincerely I haven't seen anyone like it and I have not regretted it.
From my family becoming his family and vice versa to the idea of creating my brand and the massive support I've gotten from him. From teaching me how to drive to his ride given to me to be used for business.
Mr. Benson is in his late thirties, he's a business man and hes always with a warm smile. He's been a resident for a while even before I moved in and he obviously knows a lot about the place. He has been more than a friend and brother, his friends became my friends, his family my family and of course hos beautiful daughter zahra my daughter, just except his wife that belongs to him alone😁.
One thing that that drew me to my neighbor eas always his willingness to helpme, then my sisters were not with me except for one who wasn't always around, hw was always willing to lend a hand of help. Everything he or his wife made was always given to me, even if I politely refused or wasn't around, my share was always there waiting for me. What I prayed for before moving into the neighborhood turned out so real, I was elated, I felt at home. We discussed about everything, he became my confidant and friend, I told him everything and he did same, he became my prayer partner, business partner, we just did almost everything together. Even the very minor things were turned into very engaging topics. I finally found a home after I lost both parents.
Fast forward to when my sister's came ro stay with me, he welcomed tjem, took them in as family. Infact coming to my house you won't really know if we were or weren't related. The bond is just something else, the motivation that comes from him is second to none. He has introduced me to big clients and given my business a great name. He's always pushing me to do more. A person that believes in whatever you do and is always out to support you.
In 2022,he welcomed his daughter Zahra to the world and I could do nothing but love her as my own. She brought me so much joy like I was her father. Mr. Benson is really worth much more than a person living next door, he has become a friend, a mentor and obviously a big part of my life. My relationship with him has taught me that there are some connections and relationships we build around our lives that can enrich and better our lives. I'm forever grateful to have him as my neighbor, and I look forward to many more shared experiences and lessons with him in the years to come.
