A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood. The next morning while they were eating breakfast, the young woman watched her neighbour hanging was outside. “That laundry is not clean,” she said, “she doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap.”
Her
husband looked on, but remained silent.
Every
time her neighbour would hang her wash to dry, the young woman would make the
same comments.
About one
month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and
said to her husband, “Look, she has learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who
taught her this.”
The
husband said, “I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows.”
And so it
is with life. What we see when watching others may depend on the purity of the
window through which we look.
