I downloaded 5 years of messages between myself and my late wife. We used FB to talk primarily when we weren't together. Even now, 18 months after her death, I still just cant get through the messages. I get in a ways and have to stop. Everything that seemed so inconsequential at the time, I now cherish. I wouldn't even have the option of filtering through these memories if it weren't for FB. Someday I hope to be able to go through all of our messages but as of now I still can't.
Also, I got my mom on FB. My dad fought me saying, "Pat (Patsy) don't do it, that's how they get you!" They live in rural Oregon and have no real contact with the rest of the family outside of FB. I see my mom on there all the time making comments and connecting with the rest of us. I know she loves it.
I didn't mean for this to be an ad for FaceBook but I'm really glad we have it.
Okay, that's my late night rambling. Carry on.
