Genuinely overwhelmed by the outpouring of birthday love... this has been an incredible year filled with peaks and valleys... I must say my heart was pierced quite a few times.. but it healed and was filled with love again... I was able to celebrate the 20th anniversary of my first album “Ashanti” and in the same week receive a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.. released my first children’s book “My name is a story” did a UK tour and shot two movies. I am beyond grateful as I continue to thrive and unfold my journey. As I sit on this island reflecting on life surrounded by family and friends I am truly grateful to God for another year. Thank you all so so much for your love and birthday wishes I appreciate you deep. Love y’all!!!!! 😆🎉🥳🎁🎂☀️🌴🌊❤️♎️ 10/13 📸 @_networkingz
