Hello family. Hope we are all good today enjoying good health. The most we ask of every morning when we woke to sunrise 🌅.
Thanks to our dear @nkemakonam89 for the beautiful prompt topics of this week. The two given topics I can say are very educating, but I will want to take and share my thoughts 💭 on the second question.
2️⃣ Smelling nice is part of body care , but there are people who still don’t take it seriously . How do you handle people who smell terrible around you and share with us how you ensure you smell nice always?
Decency which entirely has to do with neatness is one thing everyone of us should be proud of because it starts first from how we keep our body clean , our apartments including the kitchen and then our environment surroundings. And this is why being decent is not being proud because even cleanliness is close to Godliness.
And like the question says, many takes being decent which leads to always smelling nice for granted. And smelling nice here does not just involve taking our bath 🛁 morning and night, wearing clean shirts 👕, jeans 👖 and dresses but how do we take care of our bodies to stop body odor or offensive smells?
Being decent which prevents us from developing offensive smells is something we most be serious about and how? Although we bath 🛀 morning and night but most times we don’t bath the proper way by knowing the right soap 🧼 to use at the right season, like many will use toilet soaps 🧼 to bath month to month when the kind of job they do involves staying on the field or under the sun ⛅️ which brings constant humidity to perspiration causing accumulation of heat which toilet soaps can not bath off. This set of individuals needs medicated soaps 🧼 which has some antibacterial agents to kill and wash off the body properly. Those whose work involves staying under the air conditioning environment can manage toilets soap 🧼 since they do not sweat 😅 constantly.
And apart from bathing twice a day or trice according to what weather we are in with the right soap, many of us do not agree that leaving our armpit hair so pushy causes us to sweat a lot leaving accumulation of unwashed off odor that is so offensive anytime we are around people or pass them on the roads.
I can not stand offensive smell because it puts me off totally especially among people who are close to me . I start early enough to teach my kids of how to take care of themselves to stay smelling good at home and outside. Bathing properly with the right soap is basic, then using the right roll-on on their armpits is a must especially when going out. And we should all know too that teens and teenagers has transitional smell they all must pass through into adulthood which if not bathed off or treated by using deodorants can stick to their bodies even if they birth morning and night.
Its very important for parents and guardians to follow up on their children being aware of what it takes to stay clean and smelling good at all times. Although some children and even adults find it difficult to have night baths because of tiredness or other circumstances, but I tell you that going to bed 🛌 without taking your night bath 🧼 after the sun through the day as a worker, business person or playing with other kids as a child, is the worst of it all because continuously the heat and dirt will pile into body odor.
I have counseled so many people who are close and around me with unpleasant smells, recommending soaps, deodorant and shaving 🪒 cleaning to stay decent. This is not the issue of I don’t have money 💰 because staying decent is so simple with just little effort. And to avoid smelling around people, we should also avoid the “repeat of wearing our clothes severally without washing them especially if you sweats a lot.
In conclusion, I make sure to use the right soap 🧼 according to season. Mild toilet soaps during the rainy ☔️ season and medicated soaps 🧼 during the hot weather since my job involves field work. I don’t also joke with my deodorants and roll on even if it means carrying my hair style for another two weeks to save some money for them. And has never gone to bed 🛌 without my last nigh bath which leaves us smelling good and staying fresh to bed especially the ladies. Its very important we see and take decency as something that is not just being proud 🥲, but a way of life that can help us to meet those we never expected to have connections with.
