Bloch Talk

I really enjoyed visiting the Museum of Art. I hadn't ever been in that building before and I love art history and just art in general so going to visit that painting was a good excuse to go. My only complaint was about having to drag our backpacks to a bin to be stored away during our visit... that was just different.

Staring at the picture for ten minutes wasn't really enough time for me to come up with my own interpretation of everyone so we stayed a little over 15 minutes. In that small amount of time I can conclude that I am most like the man 2nd in from the left that has an expression of deep concern on his face. He stands in the background, pressed back by a gathering crowd but gazes straight forward with worry.

I, unlike him, don't have that many wrinkles...let me just make that clear. And I really am not a huge worry wart, but something I do worry about is others abilities to see what kind of miracles Heavenly Father can place in our lives, especially through Christs atonement. I feel the greatest joy from recognizing tender mercies and love coming from my Heavenly Father and it worries me that others do not recognize his love. That they are too low in spirit that they cannot feel the peace and comfort he can bring.

This teaches me about being a disciple-scholar in regards to worry and care for others. To be a disciple-scholar one needs to be able to care and feel for everyone. To not be selfish and think of themselves but to worry about the welfare of others as well.
