This little story came in a recent email. A good reminder for me!
A young couple moved into a new neighborhood
The next morning while they were eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbor hanging the wash outside."That laundry is not very clean", she said. "She doesn't know how to wash her clothes. Perhaps she needs a better laundry soap.
Her husband looked on, but remained silent
Every time her neighbor would hang her wash to dry, the young woman passed the same judgment.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: "Look, she suddenly has clean clothes! I wonder who helped her learn to do her wash?"
The husband said, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
Conclusion: What we see when watching others depends in large degree on the purity of the window through which we look.
