got all philosophical this morning

A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbour hanging the wash outside.

 

"That laundry is not very clean; she doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap."

Her husband looks on, remaining silent. Every time her neighbour hangs her wash to dry, the young woman makes the same comments.

 

A month later, the woman is surprised to see a nice clean wash 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

Very true Kate - that reminds me, must get "him indoors" to clean my specs, it's a wonder I can see anything.

Hello Kate, nice to see you here and happy new year to you.  Hope 2014 is better all

round for you and that the down thoughts are much less than the positive ones for

you.  Hope you had a nice Christmas too.

 

And yes, that is very philosophical but very, very true.
