Purity Of The Window

Hello, I love the moral of this story, I think you will too.
Thanks for visiting,

A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hang 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 purity of the window through which we look. Before we give any criticism, it might be a good idea to check our state of mind and ask ourselves if we are ready to see the good rather than to be looking for something in the person to judge.

Never A Friend

Hello Everyone, I hope your doing well, I wrote this poem for someone I once thought was a friend, who turned out to be so far from that. I'm sure you have all had that person in your life.
Thanks for visiting,

I sit and reflect
while slowly time
goes past
thoughts of what was
a friendship
burned up and turned to
ash

Pain and loss are
common words
Describe very little
of the hurt
I had such hopes
that you were true
Would forgive
my defects,
my imperfects
Would have a
heart
When I was in
the dark

How wrong was I, how
delusioned my mind
Friend became almighty judge
as such cruel words
flew off your tounge

Your self showed
it's truth,
Your better
than all others
around you
A way to survive
the reality of your
life
Good luck with that
false
Remember Karma will
return your words
and thoughts
