Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 268 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
Man is the only living creature that has to dress himself in clothes. Have you ever thought about that for a moment? All other animals and birds are born with their clothes on, or they grow their own clothes such as furs and feathers and so on. Now, these protect them from the elements; the cold, the heat, the rain, and anything else that they need protection from.
Human beings wear clothes not just for protection against the elements. There are climates in certain parts of the world where no clothes are necessary for protection. Yet even the natives of those climates wear certain clothing, certain coverings. It’s interesting, isn’t it? Clothes are important because without those, a person is somewhat ashamed of who they may be.
Every decent human being has an inborn sense of shame to display his nakedness. It is a sense of inborn decency and modesty to cover his body at all times.
Modesty in clothing is considered differently for various people. Some believe they have to add on other “things” above and beyond just the regular clothing.
Decency, however, comes from the fact that a person recognizes what they wear. It is often said, that the person’s personality is reflected in the clothes that they wear. How do you feel when you dress yourself? Do you feel that sense of shame or decency? Do you feel that it’s appropriate for you to show parts of your body which are really only yours?
In some countries, some people wear clothing of much lighter coverings, even skimpy, for that matter. But in others, it is felt and it is an inborn or sometime the fashion, that they wear a full apparel to cover all of their parts of their body. Again, covering your parts of the body doesn’t make you decent by just that fact. No. What makes you decent is the fact that you’re dressed appropriately, according to what the world relates to in our day and age.
Be careful with what you wear. Be careful on how you cover yourself. If you decide to uncover yourself, be careful of the effect that it would have not just on you and your personality, but anyone around you. Covering yourself is a sense of decency.
