I'm Amazed how Many People Feel Free to Show me their True Colors

I was asked if I would write the letter below to help with a court case. 

Because I’m extremely dyslexic writing is one of the most difficult things for me to do in life! So once I write something down I just want to publish it and share it with others. Of course, keeping the people involved anonymous. 

 Dear Dr. T,

Let me introduce myself a little bit. I have been working for the last 17 years as a gate attendant for upscale gated communities in and around the Scottsdale area in Arizona.

I’m a survivor of childhood traumas and in 2015 I also survived being the target in the workplace of a psychological warfare. So you could say in my heart I’m a child advocate and an educator of how people with unresolved childhood repression can become, as adults, very dangerous people, like I encountered at the last company I worked for and keep encountering in the workplace. The workplace can be a very dangerous place to be in.

I met the P family six years ago when I started working at the gated community where they used to live.  I’m writing this teary-eyed because when I started working at their gated community I was suffering from PTSD from the psychological warfare I just had gone through at my last job. And I will never forget Mrs. P, C’s Mom, kindness that was very helpful in my recovery from the very recent traumatic experience.

 For the last few years while working at the community where the P family lived I only witnessed C being an excellent mother, talking with her daughter with patience and kindness, and no doubt the welfare of her daughter is her number one priority.

 I have not witnessed Mr.  X, A's father, interact together with his daughter, but he didn’t leave a positive impression on me. He was annoyed that I didn’t give him access into the community right away, but it’s part of my job to check the resident’s admit list and if the guest is not on the list I have to call the resident for permission to admit.

It’s amazing to me how many people feel free to show me their true colors, every day, just because they suffer from the illusion that some people are less than them, like for example security guards.  To me, we are all equals in this journey of life.

 Sincerely,

 Sylvie Imelda Shene
