The New Neighbors
A couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the women sees a neighbor hanging laundry outside and says, "Her laundry is not very clean; she doesn't know how to wash correctly. Maybe she needs better laundry soap."
Her husband looks on, remaining silent. Every time the neighbor hangs laundry to dry, the woman makes the same comments.
A month later, the woman is surprised to see 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."
The husband replied, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
Sometimes what we see when looking at others depends on the window through which we look.
