I got these in email and wanted to share because I thought one was cute and the other insightful:

Here's the cute one:

A Cup of Tea for Daddy


This is a good one!


A Cup of Tea for Daddy:

One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me. I was maybe 31/2 years old and had just recovered from an accident. Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys.


Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought him a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home.


My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!'


My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up.


Then she says, (as only a mother would know 'Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get water is the toilet?'

HERE'S THE INSIGHTFUL ONE:

The dirty wash!

Things aren't what they appear to be.


A young couple moves into a new neighborhood.
The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees the neighbor hang up the wash outside.
'That laundry is not very clean, she said, she doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs another laundry soap.
The husband looked on, but remained silent.
Every time her neighbor would hang out the wash, the young woman would make the same comment.
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?
Her husband said, 'I got up early this morning and washed the windows.'

And so it is with life: What we see while watching others, depends on the purity of the window through which we look.
