If we are self-aware, if we pay attention to the thoughts in our head and the attitudes in our heart, we will likely be shocked by what we think and feel.  We are unceasing critics and self-appointed judges.  We size people up and measure their worth as soon as we encounter them.  And, of course, we often come to a conclusion that flatters us and is unfavorable toward them.  This the way of the world.  But the Gospel teaches us to think otherwise, about ourselves and about others.
