When life etches an indelible mark upon you, it fuels an unwavering urge to share your truth—this is the essence of Ruth Andrews Garnes’ music and poetry. Her journey into self-discovery began under the weight of profound loss. The tragic murder of her grandfather forever altered her family’s path, leaving a lasting effect that shaped her father’s early years and continued to ripple through generations. Instead of allowing tragedy to define her, Ruth transforms every hardship into a steppingstone toward growth and healing.

Within her pages lie raw, intimate stories and a powerful vision for a more compassionate world—an invitation to explore resilience, hope, and the unyielding strength of the human spirit. Through poetic anthologies like The Cry of Our Children and Fantasy or My Reality, she unravels the complexities of pain and healing, offering a deeply personal exploration of survival and transformation. Her lyrical prowess shines in Songs by Ruth, where each song bears witness to the hope that emerges even from life’s darkest moments.

An award-winning producer of short videos featuring her original songs, Ruth embraces multiple mediums to share her transformative message. Despite life’s turbulence, there is always a spark of hope waiting to be kindled. For her, the journey of self-discovery, profoundly shaped by personal tragedy, became not an endpoint but a foundation for artistic expression.

Never driven by a desire for mass acclaim, Ruth’s art is a heartfelt invitation to teach and empower individuals about the effects of abuse. Through her personal experiences, Rahtimes explores the emotional, psychological, and societal impacts of trauma while highlighting the path to healing through creativity. Using poetry, storytelling, books, and music, Ruth channels artistic expression to confront pain, foster resilience, and inspire lasting change. By sharing her personal narratives and creative works, Rahtimes strives to educate, uplift, and offer hope to those seeking healing.
