She Passed a Homeless Man Every Day Until He Gave Her a Note That Changed Everything
After reaching out to Shala, Raymundo’s brother asked if it would be possible to meet with him, and of course, they arranged it. Who would have thought that all of this would have happened?
Raymundo was a man living alone on the streets for almost two decades before someone was able to help him in ways that he didn’t even know were possible. Not only did she help him share his work with the world, but it turns out she helped him reunite with his family.
But how exactly did the reunion go? Surely this would be an incredibly emotional situation for all parties.
Can you imagine finding your long-lost brother after all these years via Facebook page? This is definitely social media at its best.
Still, though, there’s no way to really explain what the two were about to experience upon their reunion. And there was also slight hesitation that they weren’t actually brothers after all.
It’s hard to know until you meet in person.
“After 57 years I was able to find my brother when I arrived at the island I found a man in the midst of garbage hairy and unshaved with no hygiene whatsoever knowing that this person was my brother”
Raymundo’s brother emotionally confessed during his video interview
Nobody can really predict what will happen when you meet someone for the first time, just like when Shala approached Raymundo for the first time. But one thing was for sure, and that’s that the two of them were overwhelmed with joy to finally see each other.
The Emotional Homecoming and a Dream Realized
Amazingly enough, the reunion is full of emotions and waterworks. The two were so touched to finally be together again and were in shock about the whole thing.
But what was going to happen between the two of them now? After the two had reunited, his brother wanted to help him in any way that he could, similar to how Shala did.
“I suggested that raimondo come live with me my brothers are still alive they’re all alive he was the one missing to complete the emptiness we had”
Raymundo’s brother further explained
How heartwarming is that? Talk about a true happy ending to such an intense and heartbreaking story.
And this inspiring story gets even better than this. As soon as he accepted his brother’s invitation to come live with him, he got him new clothes, shaved, and a snazzy new haircut.
For the first time in 35 years, Raymundo was all cleaned up and was finally reunited with his family again. But what was it like for him to see his family see him after so long, and what was the transition like for them all?
“He’s not a guest he’s part of the family with my children and my wife he’s an integral part”
Raymundo’s brother emotionally expressed in 2011
Shala and Raymundo befriended each other and remained best friends until the day that he passed in 2020. In 2012, Shala opened the talented poet’s Facebook page and went viral.
Through that, his brother found him, and the two reconnected after thinking they’d lost each other forever. And then in 2015, they were all able to make Raymundo’s one big dream come true.
He successfully wrote and published a book of his writings. How amazing is that?
With all of the beautiful and philosophical poems and words of wisdom that the sensitive, sweet, and intelligent Raymundo has written, the most inspiring story is his own. From rags to riches, at the end of it all, he received so much love and joy in his life.
And it was all thanks to the big-hearted, inspiring, and loving Shala. Without her curiosity and open heart, none of this would have been possible.
