Life is what you make of it

Here is an interesting story, which somebody had posted on the Facebook. As you read it you will realise that indeed life is what we make of it. Our perspective towards life solely depends on how we take  various life’s events and how we look at them. The story goes as follows:
The dirty laundry
A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood.
The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman watches her neighbour hang the washed laundry outside.
“The 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 neighbour would hang her washed clothes to dry, the young woman would make the same comments.
About a month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: Look! She has learnt 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 we are watching others, depends on the purity of windows through which we look.

Our life is a creation of our minds.
