I can understand if the Torah commands one to wear tefilin or put on a mezuza.
But to command a person not to hate anyone, not to covet anything of anyone, not to bear a grudge, love your fellow as yourself, how can the Torah command a person how to feel to such a drastic extent?
It seems that it is almost impossible for a person to control his emotions to such a drastic extent (i.e. to never hate, never be jealous, always love everyone).
After all, such people are almost nonexistent except for some very very great Torah scholars and big tzadikim. But most of us can't be expected to reach their level.
