Sometimes I’m controlled by a part of me who follows “should” protocol.(Pious Pete)
I should see the good in this person.
I should like them.
But I guess people can pick up pretty quickly whether you really like them or not.
If they look like a lone wolf or rejected by others, I make a special effort to be kind to them. This comes from a sincere part of me because I feel like a lone wolf myself. I’m not being patronising then and in fact I often connect well with lone wolves. They have the courage to stand alone and not play politics in order to survive. That’s something I’d like to think that I do too. With higher self-esteem, I can do it more often.
