5 Minute Friday - TREE

It's Friday, time to get our timers out and pound away at the keyboard for 5 Minute Friday.

Five Minute Friday

Never heard of 5 Minute Friday? No worries, it's all good! Take a look at the background story of how this awesome Friday event got started and the purpose of spending 5 minutes releasing, dumping, whatever you want to call it.

Today's word focus is TREE.

Timer set...GO!

Trees are amazingly strong, with roots spreading far and wide.

It takes years for a tree big and strong.

Reminds me of life.

How over the years, we learn so much. We somehow stand strong in the midst of any type of storm. The rain beats down on us, but yet we stand.

Now in that standing, we may waver and sway back and forth. We may even get a twig or branch snapped ever so often.

But yet we stand.

You know how when a tree is cut down, you can see the rings in the tree stump? Those rings are insight to how long that tree has been "alive". Think about everything that tree has seen or been through.

Ever wonder how the things we've seen or been through is displayed?

I know sometimes I don't display the things I've gone through in the best manner, but just like the biggest tree, I am still standing.
