THE WINDOW
A young couple moved into a new neighborhood. The next morning while they were having breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hanging 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 the wash to dry, the young woman would make the same comment.
About a 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."
The husband said, "I got up this morning and washed the 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.
