How great that you were involved in the reforestation project .. “A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.” - Greek Proverb
Except reforestation in the boreal and temperate zones are a serious threat to biodiversity. There are species going extinct because of forests are taking over grasslands.
There is a similar quote in Jean de la Bruyère’s “Characters” (a sort of follow-up to Blaise Pascal’s “Thoughts”). It shows an old man having trees planted in his garden, for shade in his later years, delusional to the fact that he is about to die. When I first read that book at school, I treated it as a sort of personal Bible. That’s how much it moved me.
As proverbs go I find it +ively depressing. That's as bad as "Life is merely a spark of light between two eternities" ! But then again define eternity, why should it be further light free. Miss God and you may miss the light.
i love rubys videos. please dont throw away your beautiful intro that starts with ruby making a tea, then she pets her dog, goes into her room and takes out a book out of her shelf and the video starts. i love that intro! it gets me so excited to watch more of rubys videos. thank you so much for this experience. love you ruby... because of you i made my first to-do list on which i wrote "clean up my room" and it took me 2 hours to finish this task and clean up my room but i made it! also i started to read books everyday and read during the day as my routine.. bye for now
The Isle of Aaran looks absolutely magical! It has now been placed on my travel bucket list. I must have one of those cozy jumpers. Thank you for sharing your trip with us!
As a scottish person the joy you found in my country was so lovely to see its truly stunning everyone should have it on their bucket list to see so glad you loved it alba gu bragh 🏴🏴🏴
I visited Arran a couple of weeks ago for the first time. I discovered, thanks to a trip to the heritage museum, that I had relatives who lived and worked on the island for many generations. Me and my mum thoroughly enjoyed watching your video and pointing out where we had and hadn’t been. Arran is such a beautiful spot and you have definitely done it justice with all footage captured. Glad you had just as much of a great time as we did!
One week ago I received the 23-24 planner and I am so grateful to finally find THE best planner for a student and dedicated reader. Thank you so much for being such an inspiration in life and beauty!! I usually am too shy to post comments on your videos although I watch with interest all and every one of them but I will comment more on your future and surely unique experiences in the countryside I wish I lived!😃😃
What a wonderful place and a very interesting vlog!! I love the quality time with your mom, and how awesome of her to allow you to film her: loved her outfits, the new jumper and her doing her makeup outside in the morning!
The woodland walk at King's Cave looks incredible, and I love the relationship you have with your mum. Thank you for sharing this truly special trip with us.. I adore Scotland.
Thank you very much for introducing us to Scotland. I really felt like I was in Outlander! The landscapes were breathtaking. Your way of approaching things, of filming, of sharing your feelings meant that we were with you and your mother. THANKS ! Cynthia from France
Ruby, thanks for your videos 🍀They are so inspiring. I have always dreamed of visiting Scotland, these beautiful and mysterious places. Thanks to you, I went there. By the way, I also write books, and such videos are very inspiring💛💙.
How funny, this is my mum's childhood island ! :) She went to school with Lorna, the owner of the cafe... Hope you enjoyed, one of the most beautiful islands of Scotland!!
The part of the video with Kate was amazing and beautiful and I would do anything to go there for a holiday so I am definitely jealous of you and your mom please stay safe and healthy and prayers and blessings for you and your family love your Aussie family friend John ❤❤❤
thanks for sharing this vlog with us. i feel emotional seeing you and your mom having a great time together, reading, drinking tea, and exploring. I also just read your mom's blog and i enjoyed her writing very much. :)
I really love your Scotland videos. I'm part Scottish and would love to live there one day. My dad does a lot of ancestry research and it's interesting seeing where people on my family tree grew up and worked etc.
Absolutely beautiful video, Ruby! I really need to visit Scotland, someday. I am especially envious of all the teas you tried! And all those gorgeous jumpers! ❤ I am always in awe of your editing; quite soothing and atmospheric.
I like you think Arran is wonderful. I have been several times for special birthdays and holidays with family and friends. We usually stay in Lamlash looking across to the Holy island. Love Glen Rosa and saw the golden eagles up at Lochranza in the north. Thanks for posting this video.
I am from Slovakia and I live in Scotland near Edinburgh, I loved your video and those places are beautiful. You are an inspiration for me and because of you I decided to study my 3th Bachelor degree in University and read more books :) I think you will love one book called Scottish myths and legends by Rosemary Gray.
French girl here with a long standing dream of going to Scotland, I'm so glad to have a peak vicariously through you today haha ! I just love your way of looking at the world ☺
@@lucieleairth j'ai des amies avec qui je veux y aller depuis plusieurs années et on a pas encore trouvé de dates en commun mais merci haha, quand on trouvera enfin le moment je garderai ça à l'esprit 😉
This was such an incredible video. If I ever get the chance to visit Scotland I will be doing what I can to trace these steps at least. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you Ruby🥺🫂🤍 I've cried a bit because thanks to you even if I'm stuck at home due to health problems I've felt so alive🥹 you're way of seeing and experience things is similar to mine and I hope I'll be out again and enjoy this little joys of living. Thank you a thousand times🫂🤍🤍🤍

How great that you were involved in the reforestation project .. “A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.” - Greek Proverb
I just heard that quote (or line) on the show, "after life" ☺
I LOVE that quote!
