While a couple was eating breakfast, the wife saw her neighbor hanging the washing 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. Morale:

What we see when watching others depends on the cleanliness of the window through which we look.

Beautiful you

picture by Ideago

-->
Let your light shine
Don’t hide behind a guy
Don’t put on a fake smile

Beautiful you, precious soul – hurt so many times -
Trust the world
Let your light shine
Don’t hide behind a guy you don’t love
Don’t let your passion die
Don’t pay the price.

You are gorgeous, wonderful
You are intelligent, amazing
Don’t lose yourself
doing things for others
but nothing for yourself .
Don’t punish yourself

Beautiful you,
Warm, caring friend
Don’t be more TO others
FOR others
Then FOR yourself

Gracious,
Be you
Let your YOU be
Allow your YOU to be
Love you
