STORY -- THE YOUNG COUPLE
A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next
morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees
her neighbor hang the wash outside.
"That laundry is not very 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
neighbor 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 depends on the purity of
the window through which we look. Before we give any criticism,
it might be a good idea to check our state of mind and ask
ourselves if we are ready to see the good rather than to be
looking for something in the person we are about to judge
