About Me


See more pics of me and my life at www.flickr.com/people/jillrr/
Lately my hobbies include knitting warm things, and playing mmorpgs. I have turned into a bit of a hermit while I've been living in GA. I have just felt like closing out the world from myself. What is strange is that I am usually not this introverted. Hopefully things will change soon, however this is giving me a chance to view my life in a different light. I'm slowly waiting for the weather to get warmer.
~Aged to Misperfection~ Aged oneself and one selves age.Hand too withered,to turn the page.The time has cometo reconcile,like the flowing sandbeyond the Nile.It cannot be seenwith these naked eyes.These eyes,these eyes!!Oh these wretched eyes!Now forced to focus in such a blur,of a sea of granules,wearing down my journey.They smooth the energy of my soul,and grind the callusesof my past.Mirages of a certian fate,once thought needed,spread vast upon open land,not a tear heeded.Now compliance sets,forced to be aged beyond my own years.It is time to lay to rest,all of what thought be best.To my dismay, I must face my own fears.-J.R.Rueter

"Art cannot be separated from life. It is the expression of the greatest need of which life is capable, and we value art not because of the skilled product, but because of its revelation of a life's experience." -Robert Henri, (June 25, 1865 - July 12, 1929) American painter
