“How Cleanliness and Sense of Beauty Can Influence the Life of an Individual”

“Cleanliness is next to Godliness”, the saying goes. I have learned that it is next to beauty, too. Cleanliness has taught me self-discipline. I also associate it with beauty. It is difficult to keep things clean and in order in today's frenetic world. It takes effort and effort takes self-discipline, but when I walk around my home or wear clean and neat clothes I feel better about myself. It gives me a sense of order and I think it says something about me to people I meet or who come to my home. Beauty makes life bearable and I find it everywhere.

Humans by nature have a sense of beauty, love and hunger for beauty. This is the gift of the Creator. He not only has this, but it has provided endless opportunities to satisfy that hunger. Man's home, the Earth, has beautiful rivers and lakes, mountains and valleys, trees and flowers, there are birds, fish and strikingly beautiful beasts of the field. Superlative beauty is among humans themselves. However, especially among humans cleanliness is a factor in beauty. The human face is always interesting, often beautiful. The same is true of the hands and other body parts. But dirt can rob them of their beauty. Clothing, in addition to providing shelter and warmth, increases one's appearance but only if it is clean and tasteful.

My life has not been a cheerful one. I never use to clean my body properly and used to keep my thing for example text book, note copies, my gaming CD’s, my cricket ball, bat, football, my school bag and my coaching bags and etc. All of things were in a disorganized way. Only if my mother used to scold me at that time I used to organize my things. Each and every other day I was scolded just for this reason. Even I kept my lights and fans turned on. This was becoming a bad habit day by day.

The thing that has made it endurable has been the beauty I have found; the beauty in music has been life

    Beauty in all of its intricate aspects, can be misinterpreted, judged, and crushed to its very core for the same reasons it was once praised. Society diminishes the prominence of beauty, while simultaneously inflicting pressure on the eradication of its imperfections. Women, nowadays, rely on more than just water, soap, and self-confidence to fabricate the mask society deems as pragmatic, and truly necessary. Although the misconception of the physical qualities possessing the upper level in the hierarchical scale of beauty has blindsided millions, there is time remaining to instill the concepts of authentic beauty, according to the article by Nicole James. Knowledge does not necessarily amplify wisdom, and therefore despite the exponentially…

    What does it mean to have beauty? What is beauty really? Questions like these can be explained through the definition of beauty. The problem is that beauty in today’s society has acquired multiple meanings. How many times has one heard the phrase, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, or how about, beauty is on the inside? These happen to be common misconceptions. The true definition of beauty is ironically hidden behind a mask of deception. Glancing through history brings to light the harsh reality of what beauty was and still is today. Individuals need to look beyond the common myth that beauty is merely subjective. Beauty is a perceptual quality that is a product of innate human design. Love it or hate it, from the moment you opened your eyes, beauty was already defined.…
