'Doors' by Isidro Zapata

Have you ever thought about doors and how much of a big part they play in our everyday lives. In how they protect us from the outside world What is the feeling you get when you hear “Welcome come on in”? For me I feel every humble and happy all at the same time I feel like Neil Armstrong taking man’s first step on the Moon because I am entering into a new area that I have never been before. When you walk through the front door you are entering into someone’s life.
A door, keeps the world outside and all the craziness. It gives you a sense of protection from the outside and you end up being who you really are behind the closed doors and only a few people get to see who you truly are.
Behind every door people are living their lives. Kid’s doing their homework, wife cooking dinner, and the husband helping her out. Or you see a couple sitting down on the couch next to each other watching a movie behind each of these doors life is going on.
A door opens you up to a new world. Each person has a soul that wants to get back to it’s real home and that is up there with our Father in Heaven. The door is just the first step you take when you walk into someone’s life. They let down their protection from the outside world and invite you inn. This is your chance, to tell them the truth and set their souls free from this world. Before you can tell them the truth and set them on their way to the father, you first have to take that first step and walk through that door. That door will let you go into someone’s life and you can see who he or she really is and not who he or she pretends to be.
So, if you really think about it a door is truly important in our daily lives. When we open the door and invite someone in we are inviting them into our lives and we are showing them a part of us not a lot of other people get to see who you really are.

This week has been productive somewhat. I gave blood on Tuesday, and Jessica and I received our Valentine's Day packages on that day too. On Wednesday when Jessica and I began to Skype, a thought popped up in my mind, saying "You should not be dating her." This is not the first time that this happened, so I gave it some thought. Today is Sunday, and Jessica and I are fasting to confirm this prompting today. Pondering the thought that I should not be dating Jessica was unbearable last night, and I expressed it to her.  Also on Wednesday night, I prayed for a missionary opportunity, and the next day my work situation changed. I did my taxes on Saturday.      The opportunity to give blood became exciting on Tuesday, when I found out that my blood type is O positive. I was told that I can do a special donation where I give double the red blood cells. They said that it was actually easier on the body because they only take the red blood cells, and put the plasma and ever...

My Work and My Interesting Health Situation Currently

This blog post is a segment of the journal entry of Alex Hicken found at the following link:  http://mormonysa.blogspot.com/2015/02/february-22-2015.html      I would like to tell you about my work and my interesting health situation currently. I don't know why I am not feeling well, but yesterday I felt weak at work. On Monday, I felt like my feet and hands were freezing all morning long. On Tuesday or so, I was wondering about my diet because I felt fine, but something was off. I think that I am not getting enough calories. I think that I have been getting about 1000 calories. Since I fasted, I could not eat as much breakfast as usual. I thought that my body was weak not eating enough, and fasting pushed it over the edge; plus, I donated blood last week. My grandma was thinking that I may have a little 24 hour bug to overcome. I think that I was getting about 200-300 calories for breakfast, 300-400 calories for lunch, and 400-600 calories for dinner; which is ...
