As you probably well know, the YPMs here in Nauvoo have the opportunity to meet a lot of people. The people that come to Nauvoo all have their different reasons why they came and are all very unique. I have enjoyed being able to see and talk to random visitors learning why they came to Nauvoo, what they are looking for, or just getting to know them.
It seem like every person that I see here in Nauvoo I love. It makes me think about what the Savior must have been like, even though I still have a lot to work on. He loved everyone more than we can possibly imagine. Jesus loved even the people that hated Him and hurt Him he enough to still teach, heal, and even die for them even if they did not understand what He was doing or why He was doing it.
Nauvoo is probably one of the best places to just feel love from everyone around you. It is sad that the rest of the world is slowly becoming more selfish, and unloving. We should strive, especially as members of the church, to turn this trend around. Conflicts between people are like a paper cut, if you take care of the wound and clean in than it will still be there for a little bit until time heals it, but if you don't fix it then more dirt and grime will get into the cut making it worse increasing the pain and time that it will take to heal once you decide to clean it. If there is a problem between you and someone fix it now, don't let it fester and grow worse.
Know that I love you, whoever you are that reads this.
