smoky: Religion is essential, I agree with Amarylllis! Without being taught to religiously get out of bed in the mornings .. to go to school, to brush your teeth, wash your face, brush your hair, dress in clean clothes ... and when you grow up to go to work every day that your boss is paying you for ...... Well if you don`t do those things RELIGIOUSLY ..... you gonna have a VERY hard life!
Right, Smoky. That's more or less what I was trying to convey..
If you don't brush your teeth, you'll have gingivitis or tooth decay .. that's hard .. very hard .. How insignificant as it may seem, it can still make life difficult for you.
And life can still be hard even if you had a windfall and you don't have to go to work, .. if you don't brush your teeth .. and you don't do it, as Smoky says,
religiously.
