A young couple moved into a new neighborhood. The next morning, they (eat) breakfast, when the young wife saw her neighbor hang the wash outside.
"That laundry is not very clean," she said to her husband. "The neighbor doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs (good) laundry soap." Her husband looked on, but remained (silence). Every time her neighbor hung her wash (dry), the young woman would make same comments. About one month (late), the young woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on her neighbor's line and said to her husband, "Look! She has learned how to wash correctly. I wonder taught her this?"
The husband said, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows!"
Can you see how it might be a good idea to check first to see if your windows are clean? What we see when (watch) others depends on the purity of the windows which we look.
Before we give any criticism, it might be a good idea to check our state of mind and ask (we) if we are ready to see the good rather than just look for something wrong in the people we met.
