This Man Lived On The Streets For 30 Years,
But Then A Cop Discovered His True Identity

Published on 30 Apr 2018
In every major city across the world, you will find a
number of poor people without a home to call their own. Mick Myers was one of
these unfortunate individuals, living the solitary life of a hobo around the
East Bay of California for 30 years. However, following a candid conversation
in 2017, a local cop soon set in motion events which would bring it all back
home for Myers. Remarkably, after three decades of tramping the streets, the
67-year-old was set on a new path that would lead him to discover the truth
about his past.
Myers knew that had been adopted as a two-year-old
infant, growing up in San Leandro, CA. He was once part of his high school’s
marching band, but he found that he was not in tune with his adoptive family.
Indeed, life at home was very difficult. Myers went without affection from his
siblings, despite the best efforts of their loving mother.
Sadly, when his adoptive parents passed away, the rest
of the family turned their backs on Myers and cut all ties. Similarly, the
California native lost contact with his childhood friends. While he eventually
found work as a truck driver, Myers was all alone, and sadly his isolation and
general situation continued to worsen in the following years.

Here in the
land of beauty and contrasts New Zealand.
Who would ever
believe that this could exist in a country where Kiwis are noted for their
kindness and
joie de vivre
How,is this
possible?
Something changed
in New Zealand.
the worse for wear
Tired or in
poor condition because of a lot of work or use:
After a month
of journeying over rough roads, the homeless and their trolleys with all their
belongings were looking the worse for wear.
The images posted
here tell a story and with a little quirky touch.
The homeless
love the banks.Not difficult to work that one out.
They are
featured here at the ANZ ATM in Manner Street Wellington. Along the road at the
BNZ ATM we did see some signs of new tenants moving in.
It would be
hilarious if it was not sad.We do not identify them and we are not there to
harrass them.They are victims and do not need to be persecuted by us.Rather we
bring this to your attention in the hope that the Government and the
authorities resolve this situation.As for the individual you may not wish to
contribute but a smile or a kind look costs nothing.
Thank you for joining us today
