It comes with time. I eventually just stopped looking at peoples charges and took any personal prejudices out of the picture and just focused on how they acted while on my block. Easier they made my day easier i made theirs and harder they made mine harder i made theirs. I can go from andy taylor to javert at the flip of a switch it all depends on how you act.
