I am still an hermit
though a hermit who wears her heart on her sleeve and wishes other people would as well
i am tired of politeness
and of people who wear masks over their clumsiness

take me as i am
take me all

living the good life


I am hermit
deciding on my future which is not a good idea
though rather to feel into it
and live the best way possible

if i grew garlic and onions and potatoes would anyone need them?
what if they were organic?

Take Care

Love, Ruth

another lovely day.

i went to hear a very inspirational woman speak today. it was a part of the international week at the UofA -the theme this year is global food security.
The woman speaking was the author of Diet for a Small Planet which is still extremely relevant today perhaps even more so . . .
She was very lively and positive. Her body literally wiggled with energy and her smile was grand in scale. Her message was hopeful and beautiful.
it was that we do not know all that is possibile and that things have gone too far and are too bad to not be optimistic.

She spoke of heroes and the need for bold humility that we need to walk with fear, using it as information to do what needs to be done to feed the children because it is not possible to know what is possible.



Before she spoke there were two lovely musicians who had travelled all the way from the Ukraine.
