Just saw this from the “memories” app at Facebook. Back when Multiply was still alive, I had a little more than a hundred friends, both online and personal ones. I got to see some of them eventually. Multiply has disbanded sometime in 2012 I think but the memories remain.
One of those close friends at Multiply then was Bella a retired teacher who taught in Thailand. She was sickly but I admired her wit and how she viewed life. She viewed herself as a fashionista here and depicted me as a gardener which I loved. She was always the first one who would decorate her house as early as October with those Christmas trimmings and tinsels. Every year, the colorful themes and decorations made us uttered “ohhs” and “ahhs”. She made the celebration of Christmas so beautiful.
There are friends and there are friends but a few of them touch you and they’ll remain in your heart forever. Bella is one of them.
I was probably one of those living under the rocks when Multiply was the in thing haha Never had a Multiply account po kasi 😀 It just wasn’t my thing at the time siguro. But I’ve heard of friendships found through Multiply that lasted.
