I saw this today and just thought it was so good I had to share it; it really made me think about how we see things!
A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning, while
they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hanging the
washing outside. She says, "The laundry is not very clean. She doesn't
know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap." Her
husband looks on, but remains silent. Every time her neighbor hangs her
washing to dry, the young woman makes the same comment. A month later, the
young woman is surprised to see nice clean washing on the line and says
to her husband, "Look she's finally learned how to wash correctly. I
wonder who taught her this?" The husband replies, "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 clarity of the window through which
we look.
