My Friends

I have the best friends in the world. When Nate called off our wedding two weeks ago, my world literally came crashing down. The guy I've been head over heels for for over a year, and engaged to for 4 months no longer wants anything to do with me. Talk about a life changing punch to the stomach. It's been really hard to deal with, but I have to admit that during this all, I've realized how amazing my friends are.



First and most importantly, I've come to realize how much Jesus Christ loves and understands each one of us. He can comfort me better than anyone else because of the Atonement. He knows exactly how I feel. He knows the hurt, the heartache, the sadness, and the loneliness that I've experienced. He is truly The Comforter.



My family is pretty dang awesome as well. I really really really love my family. They're the best. My mom left to come stay with me as soon as I called her and told her the news at, oh 3:00 AM Monday morning...she stayed with me for a week. She made sure I had time to just cry it out and stay in bed, and then also get out, do some paint therapy, get a pedicure, and of course, always get me food and try to convince me that I did at some point have to eat more than just carnation instant breakfast shakes. And the boys of the family are just as awesome. They've been nothing but supportive...I love them all so much.



These girls have been my saving grace in Provo. They were some of the first to know about the break up. They've made sure that I always have something to do, and are nothing but positive support for me. They listened the morning after Nate broke my heart, and they still listen to me whenever I just need to cry it out. They are serious rock stars. Love them.

...the list of friends could really go on for a long time. I've had a lot of great friends really reach out and be an awesome support system. Bottom line: I love my friends. They have been nothing but awesome in a time that I've needed it the most :)
