... Its been a really long time since I used the MyO but recent remembering and reminiscing creates a desire to come back to a time in my life where things seemed much more simple and clean in a sense.

I remember the days when the MyO had button that said "Go To Random User". If you clicked it, you would be suddenly taken away to a new place and a new person and a possible friendship. I made a fair few good friends using that button and then the MyO took it away. I suppose it was due to the growing user base and the inability for a random user to be selected in quite the same way...

The saddest part in removing that button is that it was a method to spur contact. If nothing else you would sign the individual's guest book and be on your merry way to discover the next random user, or to do a quiz, or browse through the newest wallpapers. If the button was kind, you would find a new dearest and bestest kind of friend.

I feel like I've lost contact, not just with the MyO but also with those few people I managed to find, and bond with through the MyO... I'm not even sure how that loss is facilitated. We have methods to communicate but its through the MyO that it feels most familiar and Im more likely to accept the contact. I feel a lot like Im loosing contact with what I once was as a person and an individual. Reading back on my archives, I feel like I dont even know the person I use to be. I've been complimented on my creativity but I feel as if somewhere in the struggle to find something worth connecting too, I traded my creativity for nothing more valuable than a piece of paper. I've been through times that were difficult on my heart and spirit and those scars take more time to heal than anything else.

I regret losing my connection to the MyO and the connections I built with members of this community. In coming back, I hope I can re-build some of that connection, with the community and with that part of me I lost.
