I have yet to participate in a Five Minute Friday post. A
post where a word is given out and you take five minutes to write whatever
comes to mind right them. Just five minutes and no editing. Timed writing
always seems to make my head swirl and lack focus, an area that needs
improvement, so I finally decided to give it a try (though I thought I had before). Not to mention, Ricardo
challenged me to post something this week and I always love a challenge and I
have missed setting time to write lately. So here is what whole and five minutes look
like to me.

My birthday weekend was spent with a suprise-ish trip to
Redding, complete with an Art Sozo class and trip to Bethel Church, staying at
a cutest little Air BnB, with an amazing view of the city. I had never heard of
a Sozo, ultimately thinking were doing a similar art concept to Paint Night.
They have a picture to draw and show you step by step.
But that is nothing of the sort and we were in for a fun
surprise. As it turns out, a Sozo is about healing and wholeness and God
bringing out it all and when you add art to the mix, it is a canvas for him to
show you in a visual form. Always healing.
Our first exercise to use the paint involved colors and
shapes and God showing what four feelings were revealed in each. Anger. Peace.
Sadness. Joy.
For me, sadness was not being whole Sadness was all things
blue and in the shape of a macaroni noodle. Little semi circles, incomplete and
lacking wholeness.
Being whole is a process of healing and God and self
reflection. It is being empowered and driven towards God and people and loving
yourself right where you are at. Something God has taken me through and
continues to draw out.
You can join the fun with #fmfparty here.
