does time heal all when friends are concerned?

I am not a computer junkie even though I have used my computer while being a junkie and for the most deviant purposes. I have found we have so many social sites now adays that they rival my pasta sauce choices at Ralph's, we have all those sex sites, all those dating ,wink ,wink sites. all those occupational sites, all those club sites ,sites ,sites sites. it made me feel like I was on that roller coaster , space mountain again and again and again, loving every moment of it but couldn't wait to get off. then along comes face book and my past knocks on my front door without any warning. A old friend found me on face book today, he looks good but I was there when he took that picture, so who knows. The thing is we were so close, friends , very good friends, best friends, I helped him in his time of need and well he helped me in mine and then one day it ended and ended abruptly, as abruptly as a bad date, but this was or should not have happened, one bad phone conversation, words exchanged and feelings hurt. Anger and sadness nestled up together like baby birds in a rain storm. We each carried our thoughts alone and masked them with lives on separate shores, then his message to me----Mark , Mark is that you, its Bruce , please do not delete , I have been thinking about you and wondering how you are, are you good? you look good , please respond , please I am your friend, please............
well I admit that tears formed as abruptly as our friendship had ended when reading this message sent to me . Of course I would not delete this message, it had been so long, why were we not friends? what? that's crazy! Well, we are again , right were we belong, in each others lifes, him on one coast and me on another. So I asked myself ---Was it face book that allowed us to rekindle our friendship or TIME? Face book helped but TIME was the champion, we are so selfish, so self absorbed, so human, we as people only have two ways of reacting,---- emotionally and rationally, emotionally ignites the disagreements, the anger, the tears and Rationally apologizes for the disagreements,the anger but still brings tears and TIME is the instrument for such actions,,,,,,please find that one person you never have forgotten, who has meant so much to you, go on any social site or by any means make contact , they will be waiting for you , isn't it TIME ?
