There is a famous saying that cleanliness is next to godliness and I figured out that cleanliness can also save us from more troubles than we can imagine. During my tender age, I used to bite my nails, but I figured out that inasmuch as I seemed not to have means for any nail cutters to trim my fingernails, it caused me more trouble, which a nail cutter could have saved me from.
I discovered that each time after biting my nails as a child, it will not take long before I start experiencing stomach cramps. Although my experience didn't make me stop it immediately, but eventually I got over the urge and desire to bite my fingernails. Now as an adult, looking back at how long it took me in those days to stop it completely, clearly shows that it might have been my first addiction. Because, as I remember, in those days, even my mom tried to stop me but her effort wasn't enough to stop me until I realized what it means to stop it. One can take good care of themselves in many different ways that seems suitable to what will help them live healthily.
It can even be traced down to our choices of the kind of body cream or soap we use in bed. An intelligent person will know to change any soap or cream that reacts negatively to their skin in the form of allergens and not continue to use it because it does good on their siblings, parents or friends. There are many existing in today's world who are yet to accept the fact that everyone is built differently. In brackets, skin color, texture, etc.
One reason why we should take good care of ourselves is to ensure we live a fulfilling life. Living a fulfilling life can not only be attributed to physical things but mentally and emotionally. To take care of oneself may be misunderstood by many but it is not selfish. Taking care of ourselves can lead to living a more fulfilling life. Imagine living a life where one is struggling to make ends meet and neglecting to take good care of themselves and later, the person gets to a greater height of achieving their goals and have what they want but then has a health that is failing.
Taking care of oneself is good and thank you for stopping by.
