THE QUIET LIFE

Lindsays Grandma — Sat, 29 Feb 2020 05:30:16 GMT

A young couple moved into a new neighborhood. The young woman saw a neighbor hanging the wash outside.

"That laundry is not clean, she doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap." He husband looked and remained silent.

Every time her neighbor hung the washing out to dry, the young woman made the same comments.

A month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband; "Look, she's finally learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this."

The husband replied, "I got up early this morning and cleaned the windows." And so it is with life.

What we see when watching others depend on the clarity of the window through which we look.

So don't be too quick to judge others, especially if your perspective of life is clouded by anger, jealously, negativity or unfulfilled desires.

"Judging a person does not define who they are. It defines who you are."
