The desire for more positive experience is itself a negative experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of oneโs negative experience is itself a positive experience.
About a year ago, you guys did a truly unfathomable thing. Something that completely blew my mindโฆ You gave The Life of a Showgirl the biggest first week for an album in history. I took a trip to Sweden to celebrate with Max and Shellback, my two collaborators on this album. Really we just wanted to reflect and take in how grateful we were for the moment we were in, but there was a studio there and we did what we do when we feel anything at all: We wrote more songs. I hope you love them, because they were born out of pure gratitude for your exuberance for and celebration of the album we made. The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore including four new songs is out on Friday and available to pre-order and save now at https://t.co/bWaNOQ6OmT โค๏ธโ๐ฅ

Well, I just got the news that my buddy Dolly passed onto the higher and greater side.
Dolly, thank you for all the wonderful things you did for us here on earth.
Your love, your music and you gave so much with your huge huge heart.
There will never ever be another you.
We will remember and cherish every memory and every note you ever played and sang.
Thank you, Lord, for Dolly.
Sheโs gonna have a blast in heaven singing all her favorite songs with all her family and friends who have gone on before her.
Iโll never forget the first time I met you and Iโll never forget our last conversation. I hold it with love in my heart.
I will always love you,
Reba
