Whatever you think of his politics, Dennis Prager is a people person. He really enjoys people. He loves people. He loves meeting people. He talks to strangers. He talks on the elevator.
I suspect he got some great mentoring from his parents.
Prager’s loving attitude strikes me because I usually feel awkward and withdrawn around people.
I’m listening to the third hour of Dennis Prager’s radio show yesterday and he’s overflowing with love for various friends and acquaintances. It’s the genuine article too. It’s not show. I grew up around people who preached about love but were fundamentally afraid of people and were thus incapable of putting their love into words and hugs in their personal life.
I grew up a WASP – a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. I grew up a Seventh-Day Adventist. These groups are pretty button-up when compared with Catholics and Jews.
One thing I love about my conversion to Judaism is that Jews are passionate demonstrative emotional people.
