Have You Ever Been So Happy Hearing From Friends From Your Past That You Cried?

Hi Opal, That must have been so wonderful, No, I have not eexperienced anything like that but recently I heard for m a friend that I haven't seen for 14 years but we were not best friend, she was someone I worked with but it was nice of her to look me up. Tamara

hi opal good for you, yes I met some of my diabetes seminar friends before my life crumbled and they hugged me and icried and we had a wonderful visit. I was moving to Antioch. well the move neverhappened the woman who was going to help us decided not to at last moment.now my friends are scattered again and would so love to hear from them. as for the traitoruos woman who pulled the rug out from under us, I just hopethat some day she realizes what she did and feels some remorse fo it. anyway I would so love to see my friends again.,

Hi Opal! I am moved by your post. I love to hear people changing lives and going for the better or should I say for the best. I love to hear people who finally recover from past mistakes and now living a straight life. There is no better life that living clean and sober. I love to hear such kind of testimonies. I could feel how that call from your friend meant to you. There are friends that stick closer than a brother/sister and I believe that kind of friendship is what you have with Angela and I know what touched you more is knowing that Angela just like you is now living a clean life and that after all the long years of no communication she remembered you and shared you the good news about her. I am happy for both of you and I pray you both continue living clean and sober. Yes good friends mean a lot to me too! I do pray for them even if we are far apart and could not constantly communicate. I have a friend who migrated to Canada and despite the distance we still keep the relationship as close as possible. We don't always communicate but whenever we do, it would be a very happy and exciting conversation and we could not stop talking really Even after the call, happiness remains because the fact that I know she is living fine in that far away land and that she also remembers and pray for me just like I do are more than enough to feel really joyful. Have a wonderful day!

Hi Opal! Wow that's great 2 years is a long time! I hadn't known until you posted. That's great about your friend as well! I haven't really had anyone that I drifted from that I cared if I got in touch with or not. I hope that you two are able to catch up and carry on your friendship.

That's great, I just recently got an e-mail from my best friend in Germany. We started first grade and finished high school together. I haven't heard from him in about 2o some years. Isn't it great to hear from old friends

Aww thats really sweet. I love seeing old friends I havent seen in awhile. It makes my day or week. I've been on myspace or facebook or something and someone will add me and it will take me some time to realize who they are. Then I usually will send them a message and we will reunite. We talk for sometimes.

First let me say that I am real happy to hear you are clean for 2 years. That's quite an accomplishment. Keep up the good work as you take one day at a time. Yes, I received a letter from my biological father's wife. I was so excited to hear from her and also to know my father accepted me as his child. Was given up for adoption as a tiny baby. Anyway, this was a wonderful feeling. This all happened about 12 years ago so I was an adult when I did a search and was able to contact and meet both biological parents. My life felt complete. Take care, carolbee

No, I don't think I have, but I haven't gone through all of the trials you and your friend Angela have. It always makes me happy to know that people who have fallen into habits that hurt them have turned their lives around. Continued congratulations go to you and her. You guys have gone through things that some of us could never imagine.

No, but a neighbor recently sent me a poem that was so sweet I cried. Congratulations on hearing such good news from your friend. I am glad to hear you are successful in taking charge of your life. We were not meant to be slaves. Keep up the good work ;-)

HI OPAL!! Congratulations to you!! That's awesome!! Wow!! That's so cool!! Both of you are making great strides in your lives and there's nothing better than that!! Now have I cried over seeing someone? Yes I have a few times but they were more of my parents friends that I haven't seen in a long long time but was very fond of them. Everybody gets so busy in their lives that some how we lost touch but when we saw them, it was like we've never been apart! lol Good to see you!!!!

I can feel your joy through your words here Opal. Not only did you receive the call but filled with such good news too - wonderful indeed! Only today I received a mail from someone from the past completely out of the blue. It is still sitting there and I haven't responded yet because it took me by surprise. Just a short and sweet 'hi how are things with you?' type of mail but this person has never ever contacted first in the twelve years that I know him and the last time was a very we were in contact was quite some time ago so it is very odd, pleasing and a surprise. What I shall respond I have no idea at all yet

Hi Opal That is wonderful news am so glad that you found your friend again. I also got back in touch with a friend after about a year of not seeing her. I helped her move away from our town as her and her children were fleeing from her violent boyfriend. After she came back to pick up some stuff I had been storing for her I did not hear from her. I was away in Ireland for two months while I had my baby and I came back home to find a letter had been put through my door with her phone number on it. So I got in touch and was so glad to hear that she and the children were fine as I was worried that her ex had hurt them. Now we keep in contact through facebook, msn messenger and phone and try to see each other as often as we can.

Oh sure I have. i rarely heard from one of my friends and when she would finally call and tell me what she had been going through I was beside myself. I am happy glad you heard from your friend. Glad she is doing so well. Life is good. Yes, I have had these times. A nice long walk usually either helps he solve the problem or helps me feel better. Both are nice.

.....Hi Opal26, First of all congratulations to you on your success with the program, you must be so very proud of yourself. Keep up the good work. I wish I were able to afford to go too a fat far to get over my addiction to food. Back to your question, I found a good friend of mine through a job that I had where I had to call people for photograph sessions. It was an accident, we knew each other when we were very young, and this person let me know that she knew her as we were talking, gave her my number and my friend and I linked up over the phone. I didn't cry, but we laughed so much and caught up with our lives, it was amazing to hear from her after so many, many years. It takes you back to the good old days. Take care.

I am so glad that you heard from this Friend and that she is ok and doing well for herself to You are 2 great People for overcoming what you have and should be very proud of yourselfs as you have every reason to be Big Hugs

No, can't say as I have... And I don't think I'd have that kind of reaction if someone from my past did contact me. I'm afraid I might be pigheaded and get angry at them.

Oh how great for you to hear from your friend after so long. Well one of my friends has seemingly disappeared from the face of the earth despite every which way of trying to reach her. Haven't heard from her in two years....if I heard from her suddenly out of the blue you better believe I'd be crying with happiness...we had known each other for twenty years before she disappeared.

Yes..at my class reunion I reunited with my friend from high school that went to beauty school with me.....we spent the whole time together......and now are emailing and going to get together soon again! I never thought I would see her again....and turns out she is one of my main charaters in my new book! She was thrilled!

Definitely. It has happend so much with me over the years as people move and migrate. If they move on this Island thn I will hunt them down but it is when they travel that it getd difficult. I am happy for you. Blessings

I dont think i have had the thing, from hearing from someone like that, but i can imagine your happiness, and i think it is brilliant that you changed your life around, both of you. That is very admirable, as it cannot have been easy.
