@yogapaddlerun That's something I've been thinking about some lately.

I started off on ICQ, Aim, MSN, etc and forums back in the 90s. There have been so many people important to my life that have come and gone as services have moved and lives have changed.

It doesn't make it easier, but missing that person I've found is something to cherish. It's a testament to what they gave to my life.

Those memories exist like a monument. I'd rather miss them than have ever been without them.
