This friendship celebration video popped up on Facebook last Wednesday and Helen and I shared a very special moment as a result

We almost go back a whole lifetime 😊❤x

Yes, my dear BFF, Helen... it feels like a whole lifetime to me also that we have been friends... I lost most of my memories from before and while we were BFF's in high school...
 
YOUR precious name “Helen Henderson” was literally the only treasure I still held in my heart from that time onward. And, even though I didn't remember who you were (I remember how hard that was for you when we met up again... you had to fill in all the blanks of our beautiful nerdy-innocent-giggling friendship and past together as best friends in High School) ... I never let your name go and was so blessed that we found each other so many years later here on Facebook when I was going through intensive therapy and needed to find out who belonged to that precious name that stayed with me for so long... that seemed to be connected to something GOOD... someone LOVED... and someone who must have LOVED and BELIEVED in me.
 
I'm so grateful you filled me in on the beautiful and very strong and meaningful friendship we had during those years that my little sister and I suffered such terrible abuse, not only inflicted by our mother during our early childhood onward... (emotional and physical), but also at the cruel hands of our stepfather, which you were able to confirm for us, because of things we'd shared with you way back then. (regularly molested, raped and beaten) My sister does not remember her portion of the abuse, other than some of what our mother had done to us and that our step-father's brother... about the same age as us… maybe a year older if I remember right, had raped her in a very scary and suffocating water drain near our house.
 
It was in my 50's that YOU dearest Helen, turned the LIGHT of my life back on, by illuminating what was actually GOOD in my life during that nightmare time during our adolescence when we knew each other... YOU were that life-enhancing GOOD I had never let go of.
 
That's why I remembered your name when all else has been blocked from my memory as a result of the abuse.
 
THANK YOU FOR BEING MY BEST FRIEND BACK THEN, AND FOR REMEMBERING ME!
 
BEST FRIENDS FOREVER!!!!
 
Helen
Thank you for your beautiful posting dear Panny-pie ❤. Yes, I remember all the fun we had together and most of all the laughter! I am glad you confided in me when we are at school and I was able to remind you that you told me of the abuse by your Stepfather. You never mentioned your mother abusing you though and it's only since we reconnected on Facebook that you told me the rest. You have climbed mountains since then my dear friend and from here on the world is your Oyster. Onwards and upwards 😊😊😊❤. Friends forever. Love ya ❤🌻🌼xxx

Bless you for being one of the greatest joys and healing strengths and loves of my adult life... you will always be in my heart and I'm so glad we were able to reconnect and catch up on so much of all that was lost... and what was so preciously kept so locked up somewhere deep inside of me.  
 
NOBODY... not even my mother or stepfather could completely obliterate my lovely memory of you which I held sacred in your name... I still had your precious name, even though they succeeded in taking so much of everything else away from me and even stole your face from my memory... I will always love you my dear, lovely FOREVER friend ❤ Have a beautiful day ❤
 
Helen
Bless you my dear friend. Friends forever. Have a beautiful day ❤x

    Since as far back as I can remember, family, friends, complete strangers and strangely even animals (birds included) have come to me for help and comfort and I have always felt the calling to be there for others in any way that I possibly can.
