We are all sinners struggling to be free as winners. Thus, after speaking with friends, family and at times random people I meet during my day-to-day activities I bring a song maybe three with me to share with you. Everyone has a story to tell, sometimes a song tells it best. We will reflect and through the song connect! Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sparerare/support

Know I do not own the rights to the music unless I state I (RareRubyC or Ruby C) produced or wrote it, such as Ruby by Ruby C., Been There Done That (BTDT), Sorrow, I Don't Fear You. Hey you guys, I just wanted to give a quick shout out to MayLynn who I met over there at QuikTrip this evening. You are amazing! Thank you for helping me out, you didn't have to yet you have a wonderful heart. There are very few people left in this world that are just like you, very young with a good heart, been through so much, working a lot of jobs, still trying to help people when you're adopting three kids for the family. Let me just say, I was just like you at a very young age. Reach out to me, I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure you get that job, that you get all the assistance you need to make sure that you are helping those kids and that you are training them, raising them in the right way that they should go. I hope that they are raised with your heart and with your character, with your morals, with your strength, with your patience and with your wisdom. Patience, Strength, and Wisdom. Those are the main three things that I usually pray to God for and that my son has. Because you need patience to get through any situation, that devil will keep poking you. You need strength to get through everything because pain, fear, anxiety, panic, even love. You need it to get out that bed, to just make one more step, to just not say a word to just not make a move, to not hit someone, you just need strength to just be calm. You need wisdom to know when to go to God, to know when to shut up, to know when to speak your mind, to know when to be you, to know when to be fake, and to know when to let the people who are being fake gossip and let them do it. Just isolate and be yourself. Again, it may be strange to pray for those three things every day, but please do, because the more you ask for three things, the stronger you are, the more patience you have with other people, and the wiser you become. It may not be the knowledge you gain for economics in the world, national, but it will be the wisdom that you gain, trust me, for dealing with human beings. humans are the most ignorant beings in the world, we really are. We're also the most hypocritical beings in the world. I just want to say, what you're doing is amazing, keep doing it, please! This is a thank you to a beautiful soul here in Northeast San Antonio.

First I'd like to say Thank You God for the Guilty Verdict as it was clear the hatred/supremacy caused the death of Mr. Floyd and many others in our country. I look forward to the true change in the inhumane treatment of all humans across our country because of supremacy ideals it is common sense for equality.

Host: RareRuby - https://www.instagram.com/sparerarepodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/rareruby86/ This episode is a bit deep as it reflects on Palm Sunday and the meaning of what Christ gave for us all - not for some - for everyone all sinners. The episode is also a bit personal as there are tons that sacrifice daily with great determination unaware of their true fate because of their faith and the goals that motivate them. GOD, thank you for all, thank you for sacrificing your son to give us a home to return to after leaving the struggles of earth. My opinion is that you reflect on the week that Christ (Holy Week) knowingly prophesized, saved the sick, resurrected the dead, and still gave his life to those that believed and the non-believers. The story of Jesus as so many stories in the bible shows us exactly why it says to treat others the way you want to be treated (Matthew 7:12) and it also shows you just how cold the human soul can go. How his death began with human persecution for being different than what was already in place. I will also give a reference to George Floyd and the Derek Chauvin case (9:29), as how can I not when you see similar examples of how Christ our Redeemer was treated every day. Prayers are still requested for my son, my mother, and me as we continue to heal, thank you all. Which songs did you choose and Why? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyzYIha2KNU - Reason I Live by Big Dismal - Exactly what the title says my motivation is my son and heaven. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMsvwwp6S7Q - Count On Me by Bruno Mars - My son is singing this and it warms my heart.

Host: RareRuby - https://www.instagram.com/sparerarepodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/rareruby86/ First, apologies for the late release, and know this episode may be a bit long. This week marks round four as my mom heals from C-19. GOD. Prayers were also requested for my son and I as well this past week, thank you all. Why did you choose the songs? Yes, I am aware Stevie is referring to the birth of Aisha, however, sometimes there are stewards of the community or the church, grandparents, family, even the births of our sons where we may feel that same joy of new birth or acceptance, maybe approval. Speaking to this person...is the emotion you'd feel when you see that person you would be ashamed to tell you've sinned but tears are just flowing because they have always been your comfort. I talk about my “hood” upbringing a lot. Don't get me wrong yes I had my choir director from the church as my elementary school principal but I also witnessed so many drug deals, deaths, I said that hell nah my son doesn't need to fight it. She and several others used to help my Grandma get us to church, to school events, church competitions, etc. even when she passed we were scattered all across town, they still tried their best to keep us together. When I came back here I went back to her because I needed the connection but also because I knew I may not make it through without losing myself. I saw her name on my phone a few days back, I cried because no matter the amount of good I do I will always feel guilt because I have yet to personally hear from God that my heart is in the right direction. I didn't have the strength to speak on! I was in tears receiving the call I couldn't make. Not that there's beef it's more to do so with I have disappointed them. One more mentor, grandma that was of no relation by human DNA that loved me and helped me when I was a child. My childhood was NOT easy, not many are. They had their own children, their own lives. Trust, I have tons of people that question why am I a daughter, a sister, but not them, never her. Also, the death of my cousin Ieshia C. has always stung. Thanks to A Turtle's Tale for putting Bruno's song in my ear. God put the others!!

Cold weather turns me into a bear or better yet since I am a Cancer (Astrology) crab. Thus, I smoked three types of meat, wash all bedding and warm clothing, try to execute as many tasks as possible, and make as many excuses to stay in and off the roads. NOT LAZY just not in the rain, sleet, ice, snow, etc. I have four reasons why. Now, who doesn't love the classic, Baby, It's Cold Outside?

Here's Macklemore's White Privilege II Pulled into the parking lot, parked it Zipped up my parka, joined the procession of marchers In my head like, "is this awkward? Should I even be here marching?" Thinking if they can't, how can I breathe? Thinking that they chant, what do I sing? I want to take a stance 'cause we are not free And then I thought about it, we are not "we" Am I in the outside looking in, or am I in the inside looking out? Is it my place to give my two cents? Or should I stand on the side and shut my mouth? "No justice, no peace, " okay, I'm saying that They're chanting out, "black lives matter, " but I don't say it back Is it okay for me to say? I don't know, so I watch and stand In front of a line of police that look the same as me Only separated by a badge, a baton, a can of Mace, a mask A shield, a gun with gloves and hands that gives an alibi In case somebody dies behind a bullet that flies out of the nine Takes another child's life on sight Blood in the streets, no justice, no peace No racist beliefs, no rest 'til we're free There's blood in the streets, no justice, no peace No racist beliefs, no rest 'til we're free Damn, a lot of opinions, a lot of confusion, a lot of resentment Some of us scared, some of us defensive And most of us aren't even paying attention It seems like we're more concerned with being called racist Then we actually are with racism We want to dress like, walk like, talk like, dance like, yet we just stand by We take all we want from black culture, but will we show up for black lives?

Trying to get back to the recording but I've been documenting my podcast ideas, writing-not typing my lyrics (makes recording sooo much easier), but I have not been recording nor hunting down new beats. Nor have I been motivated to make my own. I honestly just feel compelled to write. I even wanted to go back to writing my book I didn't finish 4 years ago.

Been in love so bad You'd do anything to make them understand? Have you ever had someone steal your heart away? You'd give anything to make them feel the same? Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to Only to find that one won't give their heart to you? Have you ever closed your eyes and Dreamed that they were there And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care?

Guest: RareRuby - https://www.instagram.com/rareruby86/ You know what's going on in the current news. An African-American (black) unarmed man shot 7 times in the back while walking away with nothing absolutely nothing in his hands and his children watched. How many times have you heard the terms black before describing the details? Already trying in some way to diminish the value of the person's life? I will say this is finally the generation we get to see them..... we hear them... they are no longer hidden. I guess this is also why most groups don't like me because I speak my mind. Right now, I must say that I am truly tired of being referred to as a COLOR. Before it was colored before it was nig***, coon, dirt, cotton picker, milk cow, etc. pretty much imagine the lowest name you could give a person who had no choice. I mean anyone with African-American descent has been called it. Not always to their face but always in history, CHATTEL/SLAVE. I understand in 1865 Caucasians controlling America knew African-Americans overpopulated the states, their doing, not ours, it's called supply chain and the use of machine over humans, but you still were supposed to be children of God thus treating others the way you wished to be treated, seeing that we were also people of God that to mark us as slaves was to thus be marking yourselves not a child of God? and yet here we are now allowing killing based on color (black) again over recognizing that regardless of the shade you shouldn't want to see life fade? All you wanted was power, control, to be Cain. Quit trying to stop equality. please. It's a cycle, Politics is an illusion that is about money. Yes, I vote! I vote for the actual person with the character shown that I respect not the party. I wish it was an actual council of equal power so that one ethnicity could never outrank another.

To be honest back in the day between the age of 13 and 24 I fell in love with the Country Boys way more. They always saved me from the dark, listened to my heart, and when I sang they cried, seriously. During my childhood, I had been pulled in so many ways by the devil. Bullied, even had to fight and almost kill more boys from my hood and my skin tone and ethnicity over street life and no direction. So yeah I was afraid. My best friends were people who could skateboard, shoot a gun, box, play the guitar, yet still read the Bible, and still kill Bambi when I couldn't. Plus people thought I was better than them because when I was 4 and 5 I had to take ESL I & II classes. Came up this week because we believe my son will also. Yes, I spoke English but I could not articulate the item correctly because I would have an accent of either French or Spanish. Thus I was a Latin AP 4.0 and Spanish Spelling Bee Competitor locally for many years lol but I also speak English very well. I just cried over my son because he's gonna be labeled so many things in this country too. Hence I prayed, laughed, and said I wanted to here a strong country woman tell some of my story.

Guest: RareRuby - https://www.instagram.com/rareruby86/ What mood were you in before/after the song? I was actually in a happy/disappointed mood because they had the Phillipians 4:13 and Betty Boop Face Masks but none of them in Pink. I've been rocking all three proudly since 3 years old, even Ms. Piggy. Why did you choose the song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAsu1DhC15U I had actually just had a conversation with Steve Calderon about how I get hated on about being an Ordained Minister and still cursing. We both agreed Ass and Damn are in the Bible and had a good laugh agreeing that sometimes church begins when two people are cursing their brains out. He is actually the one who told me about the song. So I pulled it up on iTunes and cranked it up in my car. Would you be willing to Karaoke or sing-a-long? Actually, I've only heard the song maybe 4-7 times. However, it's a hip hop and very dominant beat so of course, I'm bangin' my head and yes it speaks my lyrics! So give me a few more plays lol!
