Hugs and ILYs.

So, last week (actually about 2 months ago.  I got lazy), I finally went to my ward after not being there for 3 weeks.  Clarification, the first week, I was home for Brandie's bridal shower and bachelorette party.  The next week, I was sick/kinda ditched because I didn't want to walk down to church while being a sickie. And 3rd week was Brandie's wedding weekend, so I was down in the valley again.
 But I went to church and I was able to see my old relief society president, who had just graduated and moved back down to the valley.  She had become a close friend of mine when I was going through a tough time.  She was passing through Flag with her new fiance (SO ADORBS) and attended our ward.  When she saw me, she gave me a huge hug and expressed that she missed me and wished that I was doing good.  Let me tell you, I NEEDED that hug.  I forgot that people could care about me.
Then later after relief society, my current relief society president stopped me and gave me a hug.  She started saying how that she felt that she hadn't seen me in forever (so I had to tell her why I wasn't there for the last 3 weeks) and then proceeded to ask me about me. Which nobody really does. There's always the "oh how's it going?" questions, but not specifically like how she was asking me.  She then hugged me again, and told me that she loved me and said I could ALWAYS go to her for anything.

I love how Heavenly Father knows what we need.  At that point, I just wanted to be home.  Like I've said before, I don't feel like I belong here in Flag that much anymore, but I was shown that no matter how I feel, He will direct us to people that can show us that we can make our lives better, if we let it.
