My name is Ruth.<br />
I love to write and I run my own<br />
blog ‘the.rolling.twenties.’ I love to<br />
read and be creative. At the<br />
moment I am working on making<br />
things for my home, including a<br />
drawing <strong>of</strong> a butterfly.<br />
I also love to exercise which includes<br />
yoga, rowing and walks in the<br />
countryside.<br />
I have one degree already but I am<br />
loving studying for my second one.<br />
The other main loves in my life is my<br />
family, my partner and our boys<br />
and my friends.<br />
"powerful<br />
and<br />
positive"<br />
The things I want people to know is disabilities don’t hold you back.<br />
I have walked many miles, travelled around the globe and seen<br />
many sights.<br />
I see my disability as an ability. It pushes me to overcome things,<br />
such as struggling to walk. Disabilities don’t hold us back, they<br />
make us stronger, more powerful and positive. I am proud <strong>of</strong> who I<br />
am.
