69 year old Michael was relaxing on a public bench inside the bus station. He was open to telling me his story. He has been sleeping in bed #29 for one year at a local shelter. One year ago he was evicted from his apartment due to unfortunate circumstances. He spoke of wealthy people leaving him money, but the courts could not find a solution and everything was still in probate. His eyes moved quickly left and right as he spoke. He seemed content and we chatted about life. I am hopeful that Michael stays safe and warm. He asked me to give him a copy of his picture. I have plenty of money, he says, to pay for it, but I declined. I will print a copy and keep an eye out for him.
