THE WINDOW THROUGH WHICH WE LOOK

Here is a little story that all of us Behind-the-Benchers can relate to.  As we watch the many games cheering for our athlete children or coaching spouse our view of  what we see depends upon our own perspective. . .

THE WINDOW THROUGH WHICH WE  LOOK
Author Unknown
A young couple moved into a new neighborhood The next morning while they were 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 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 'window' through which we look'.
