"Old Saying Shows Importance of Cleanliness" by Susan Pearl

Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

This old saying was used a lot when I was growing up.  In my opinion it describes the high level of importance for washing our hands and keeping things clean.  It's a way of life showing respect and love for ourselves and for others.
It maintains a healthy quality of life that gives support to well being.
Doing something for our own well being and for the well being of others are such very important standards to live by and practice daily.
