My uncle has this adorable little shop in our village which is very close to our home. With the lack of upscale establishments in this area. It is like a lifesaver for all of us. My uncle felt it would be wonderful to have a location close by where we could often buy necessities. He therefore stocked his store with reasonably priced goods that ranged from food to household necessities.

We do not have to travel very far to run out of things like bread or soap. My uncle's store contains everything. It is like to a magic box where you can find anything you require. It also spares us from making lengthy sometimes troublesome treks into the city.

It is more than just a store. It is the center of our community. We run to my uncle shop whenever we have an urgent need. It also serves as a community gathering place. While gathering our necessities we catch up on gossip. And my uncle who is always willing to provide a hand is like a friend to everyone.

I believe there is more to my uncle store than just merchandise. It is about looking out for one another. He makes an effort to meet all of our wants since he is aware of them. It is similar to having a merchant as your guardian angel. He is a blessing to have around.
