[EDITOR’S NOTEThe following is a Letter to the Editor, written and submitted by a verified resident. It does not necessarily reflect the opinions of South King Media, nor its staff:]

Thank you for such a beautifully written, heartfelt response to the letter writer who asked:

Am I a Hypocrite?  

Your choice of words deftly described the painful and fearful experiences of not knowing what could alter your life or who could do that or when your life might change & you too could be in a tent, on the street and cold. 

The lack of control over your own security as described by you is wrenching and so it must be for all those who suffer with similar experiences

Your empathy and ability in a few words helped me understand your thoughtful response to the question the writer posed when she wrote: 

Am I a Hypocrite?

Thank you.
