What a surprise! The woman sitting by her window was clearly seen. Her window was clean!Then I dawed on me. I had been criticizing(批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings(缺点)？From then on, whenever I want to judge(评判) someone，I ask myself first, “ Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I can see others‟ world more clearly.56.
