A young couple moved into a new neighborhood. The next morning while they are eating breakfast, the young woman saw 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 how."
The husband said, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
My neighbors don't hang laundry outside but maybe my backyard will look cleaner now....our windows were cleaned this week. Too bad it won't help if I look into my boys rooms through newly cleaned windows!
