I understand your struggle.
It is hard to develop the humility, wisdom and maturity that allows one to be free from judgement.
For me, it has been difficult enough to figure out how best to live my own life, much less determining how others should live theirs.
Yeah, it is annoying when people are rude in traffic or blast music that I don't particularly care for, but I try to remember that I am dealing with incomplete information.
For all I know that person tailgating me is trying to get to the ER to be with a loved one. A person who is dressed badly - their house may have just burned down, or they have some condition that requires that attire.
It's the old "you can't judge a book by its cover" type thing.
