I think that at the moment we are faced with a moral dilemma, everything about us is relevant and comes into play. At the same time, detachment, as always, is important to integrity. If we allow our thoughts or emotions to "attach", we identify with them and are not open to further possibility. This does not mean that we repress or deny anything, only that we do not hold on the the emotion in a way that might obscure our viewpoint, breach the integrity of all aspects and systems responding in concert, or create hesitation where ethical action would naturally occur. Emotions, like thoughts, come and go. When we attach to them, they repeat and create noise within us that makes it hard to listen to much else.
