Message from a fan below that reminded me of why I am making this album Broken is Beautiful:
You had a huge impact on my life, you're music and your story as well touched my heart in a very special way. I just wanted to thank you for sharing it with me and my family. I just recently lost a friend to suicide...And I remembered your story and "Broken is Beautiful" I don't think I would have taken it as well without the experience I had in Dekalb at Praisapolooza!! I love you

Through the ups and downs you'll stay
You know those ladies in the church that make you feel so loved and so convicted at the same time? I have a few of those in my life. Recently one came up to me and after a big hug said "why haven't you told us you were sick?" I responded, "I don't want you to worry or think I am unable to do what I need to do." She then went on to say showing my human side only would inspire her and others to realize we all have limitations.
The last 2 weeks have really been hard health wise. I missed 2 weeks in the studio, which has put me behind, and I have had to say no to some very special things to me. All this to say I am learning more and more to
1. Ask for help
2. Focus on what's important.(Prioritize)
3. Be true to my body, heart and Spirit when it is speaking to me about limitations.
4. Seek God direction for even small decisions.
5. Slow down
I have had no control over so many things lately but that which I do have control over is how I manage my time and respond to adversity.
Today I was supposed to head to the studio but my keys were locked inside the car...I rode my bike to get them for my husband and found him in a meeting with his Music Business club. They were planning one of my upcoming events and they invited me in. I felt at that moment to talk with the kids and thank them for there work and asked them if they had any questions for me. It turned into a time of me helping them process relationships with boyfriends and how to keep working hard for there dreams. After some girls shed some tears it was clear that moment was divine.
So no I did not get to the studio but I got to my purpose that lies behind the music touching lives and building relationship. That is how it all works we are to be there for one another in the ups and downs, we must be telling of our struggles so that others can enter into our lives with comfort wisdom and love.

One Girl (Can Change the World) Lyrics by Shuree Music Copyright 2010
ONE GIRL CAN CHANGE THE WORLD
VERSE 1:
I’m not the kind of girl who’s just a pretty face
Stilettos, fancy clothes, no I gotta brain
I’m not the kind of girl who’s backin’ off
I’m moving forward, steppin’ up, ain’t playin’ around
PRE:
Ready to put up a fight
To make a difference in life
Don’t let em push you around no
Do it one girl at a time
Put your sign in the sky
So let your colors fly
HOOK/CH:
One girl can change the world
We gonna turn this place out
One girl can change the world
Yeah we’re livin’ it loud
So turn it upppp – if you know who you are
So turn it upppp – girl you shine like a star
One girl can change the world
So hit me up if you’re down
VERSE 2:
I’m the kind of girl I be up in your face
Speak my mind, lay it down, ready to play
I’m the kind of girl who’s keepin’ it real
Got no disguise, I just wear my heart on my sleeve
PRE:
Ready to put up a fight
To make a difference in life
Don’t let em push you around no
Do it one girl at a time
Put your sign in the sky
So let your colors fly
HOOK/CH:
One girl can change the world
We gonna turn this place out
One girl can change the world
Yeah we’re livin’ it loud
So turn it upppp – if you know who you are
So turn it upppp – girl you shine like a star
One girl can change the world
So hit me up if you’re down
BRIDGE:
Look up in the sky-sky
Flyin’ up so high-high
You’ll hear them say “Who’s that girl, who’s that girl”
Look up in the sky-sky
Flyin’ up so high-high
You’ll hear them say “Who’s that girl, who’s that girl”
One girl
Ya'll ready?
Let's go!
I'm gonna
Your gonna
Were gonna
Change the world!
