Cleanliness

Theres a saying :"Cleanliness is next to godliness". Till now i had not understood what it was. It was just like any other proverb for me, but i now perceive it differently. Probably, when you are very clean, you do feel on top of the world. Especially, having a bath after 2-3 days does make you happy. This happiness of the inner self may have been referred to as godliness.
I do admit that i am a bit lazy, when it comes to cleaning my own room. But once you have cleaned your own room, things do fall into order and you are able to find these things easily. This brings in a happiness that cannot be expressed in words. Your temper does cool down and your nerves calm down, when you live in such an environment. The "feel good" factor develops and you feel a lot secured. Thats what i am going through now, on a bright sunday morning , after having a nice bath.
