I think this is a journey that will take a lifetime, to be completely honest.

And as far as “people”—I believe that one should include oneself.

Jesus of Nazareth taught two things, among many:

1. Judge not that you are not judged, for what measure you mete out, it is measured to you again.

2. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, and strength; and love your neighbor as you love yourself. On these hang all the Law and the Prophets (Old Testament).

I interpret this as meaning do not judge others in a way that you would not also judge yourself, and love them as you love yourself. I believe this is the way of balance, where justice and mercy are as yin and yang.
