A young couple moves into a new neighborhood.
The next
morning while they are eating 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 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!*

I hope each of you has a beautiful day and that you always look and are seen through clean windows.

Wonderful Sylvia.. as usual..!
I'll take your weather over ours this year, Sylvia. I've never seen it so dry and dangerous. I don't know if my office building is still there - apparently 35 homes burned on its street.
I love your weekly dose of witty humors! It just that much more joyful for the day!
Thanks for my daily chuckle, Sylvia. Your a special lady, my friend.
Be well and Happy ~:)
Thanks for the story -- I got a good chuckle from it. I completely understand the speeder's problem.
Fantastic Sylvia, great story and then a follow up with a good laugh.
Great way for me to start my day before I head off to work.
Funny tales, Sylvia, jabbng the young and the old in a single post!
Loved this post. You bring cheer to so many with your positive attitude, thank you!
Great post Sylvia and so very true on both counts.
Now I forgot why had I came to this page.. uff
:D
I have a feeling if I could see (thank goodness I can't)my neighbors washing through my kitchen window it would possibly be the same thing! J'adore the second story, how long before it applies to me is questionable haha!!
A lesson there.
