A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The wife criticizes her neighbor's laundry hanging on the line, saying it is not clean and she doesn't know how to wash properly. This goes on for a month until one day the wife notices the laundry is clean and comments on it. The husband reveals he cleaned their windows that morning, implying the wife's critical view of the neighbor was due to the dirty windows, not the laundry itself. The document encourages people to examine their own mindset and cleanse their perspective before judging others.

The Window
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. .
Perhaps she needs better laundry soap. Her husband looked on, but remained silent. . That laundry is not very clean, she said, she doesnt know how to wash correctly. .
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. . .
And oh yes! I almost forgot. I see you today much clearer than I did yesterday And you?
Wishing you a nice day
