In this episode of Through the Ruth, we explore the importance of Grandparents inside a home.

Whilst not everyone is fortunate to have good Grandparents, or the may now have wings, but the cultural significance of Grandparents alone is important in shaping our past, presence and our future for everyone inside the family.

A home without the people is just a house. An extended home with more people can be a new world of possibilities.

In this episode, we will hear how they shape us, the memories we keep, and even how they physically can increase our enjoyment of life.

So please grab a cuppa and take a comfy seat, your listening to through the Ruth, the podcast that's all about HOME.

Welcome to episode five, where we explore the idea of showing GRATTITUDE for what we have and where we stand in the community. Home is not just 4 walls we hide within, it's as equally the community we live amongst. Being part of a community is not simply living within a zone but contributing to assist others and how we can help.

Being truly 'at home' also depends on how important our present is within a community, or several communities depending on your interests and what you are able to assist others with in order to gain yourself.

I hope you enjoy this episode of meandering thoughts, and the growing on line community of Through the Ruth.

Welcome to Through the Ruth.

In this episode, we hear the story about a tenant who unfortunately experienced what we all fear. They came home to an open front door and discovered they were broken into.

We hear how this was handled, what happened following this night, but also how kindness and empathy can change the entire negative experience into a positive outcome.

Afterall, HOME is mean to be our security away from the world and worth protecting!

I hope you will join me, and don't forget to follow along.

Welcome to the Second Episode of Through The Ruth.

In this episode, we explore a few stories of People and their pets!

Pets are such a wonderful addition to our family and literally make a house a home.

Hope you enjoy an inside view to the joy of being greeted at the door by a pet.

Home means such different things to different people.

Its understanding these differences that helps us work out what that meaning is to us.

For some it has more to do with the people inside it than the structure itself.

To others it's the structure than means everything, especially with shortage of rentals or from a divorce.

We delve a little into all aspects presenting fruit of future episodes.

Thank you for joining Through the Roof as we embark on our first episode.
