Like Loribeth, my ectopics and infertility happened a long time before that. I was struck two days ago though, when a friend posted that her daughter was 14. She shared the same due date as my second ectopic. It was a moment.<br /><br />Also - "It seems like both another lifetime away and like yesterday." That's how I felt about my ectopics and cancelled cycles for a long time. But gradually they're not feeling like "yesterday" much any more. If I want to though, I can transport myself back there and remember and feel it all again. I just choose not to these days.Malihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928262526502319303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998166587816121679.post-53483830817329380562017-08-29T14:14:22.012-07:002017-08-29T14:14:22.012-07:00I kind of enjoy my "On This Day" feature...I kind of enjoy my "On This Day" feature and looking back on the memories/stuff I've shared. Of course, Facebook came long after my days of infertility treatment, etc., so I might feel differently if I was constantly reminded of negative cycles and miscarriages, etc. Here's to new, happier memories in the years to come! :) loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998166587816121679.post-61571526881832950822017-08-28T18:16:43.879-07:002017-08-28T18:16:43.879-07:00Yes!

I think it would be great for someone looking for milestones, or changes to a house, or whatever. Not so much if you've lost a loved one, or sustained other trauma that's visible in your posts.

Half the bush is pink and half is fuchsia, and occasionally there's one with a few petals of each but not since 2015 has there been one split right down the middle! <br /><br />Yup, things can be mighty rosy colored on the facebook, even when it's mushy. Yay for beauty during trauma, it makes things more bearable, right?

Now I find it to be a mixed bag - I've had some, "OMG, that's so cool" and "Oh yay, I'd forgotten about that horrible thing" myself. However, I love your idea of having more positive memories to reflect on in coming years, and the coast is always a good choice! *hugs*internetg33khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12672869878789920528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998166587816121679.post-63287465599781077272017-08-26T07:34:59.474-07:002017-08-26T07:34:59.474-07:00Yeah, I think you are right about the posts being ...Yeah, I think you are right about the posts being mostly happy on Facebook. Or, at least, trivial posts of deflection and avoidance (that's me). I sometimes appreciate the memory feature as I don't often deliberately look back except using the blog (like you). But I've heard from a few people how problematic that Facebook feature can be. I'm sure there's a way to turn it off. I hope too that you make happy memories too!torthúilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738803052167620020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998166587816121679.post-88805886486258977492017-08-26T03:51:12.173-07:002017-08-26T03:51:12.173-07:00That rose.

Most people only talk about the good. The reality is, life is always messier than that. I think it shows a lot about you as a being that you can show these patterns and also the beauty that can come. Basically, the beauty that can come during the trauma.<br /><br />May this weekend bring more beautyCristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317873211902543387noreply@blogger.com
