Ruth was already the lowest... in Israeli standards. So, it was more natural for her to humble herself to glean in the field. Naomi was a work in progress. But, because of Ruth's ability to PASSIONATELY wake up in the morning, amongst grief, able to choose DISCIPLINE, over self, because she had no choice, she saved Naomi. This faith had an ending of being redeemed, but Ruth didn't care. She would be happy existing in a community of someone who had a thread of someone she loved. Her husband was her love, and lived her whole life grieving his death, yet there were blessings on the journey. One step after the other. If she lived for his purpose, then he would be with her wherever she went.    LOVED this meditation.   God bless.   xx
