Have you ever lost touch with somebody that you just wanted to find??? Somebody that represents such an important stage of your life ~ such a positive part of your life?
I have and it's taken me 15 years but I found her ~ thanks to FACEBOOK!!!!!
When I was 5 and younger, my parents were together (they divorced after that) and across the road, there was another family we saw a lot of at that time. They had a little girl, Belinda, who was my age and we almost lived at eachother's homes. We had sleepovers, baths, started school together ~ I've just never forgotten her. Since I was 16, I've tried to find her. I just wanted to know where she was at and touch base. I tried everywhere ~ I sent heaps of emails, rang people with her surname, went onto various internet sites blah blah blah ~ I started to think she may have changed her surname via marriage and it was never going to happen.
THEN, the other night, Eden was talking about facebook. I joined up and thought it was stupid lmfao. I still don't get many aspects of it ~ pokes, drinks and the like. The first thing I did though, was type in Belinda's name. With a common surname, there were a few but I knew her birthdate and I found her. I cannot begin to explain what it was like to see her for the first time in over 20 years!!!!! I sent her a message and now we're catching up on lost time.
So thanks FACEBOOK!! Whilst a lot of it still makes no sense :P it's done something for me that is just so so important.
