Judge your neighbour’s feelings by your own, and in every matter be thoughtful. (Sirach 31:15)
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
These are calls to self-awareness. Do we know our own feelings? Do we take responsibility for them?
These are calls to other-awareness. Can we discern our neighbor's feelings? Are we ready to engage them?
What is our task if we are disgusted by our own feelings or those of our neighbor?
We are still called to love.
