"I'm finally giving myself permission to enjoy the seeds I've worked so hard to plant my whole life."
There's an introspection going on with Queen Bey!
Beyoncé expressed her gratitude for her fans' sweet birthday greetings on her official website on September 23.
"As Virgo Season comes to an end, I hope my fellow Virgos had great birthdays. I'm so thankful for every inspiring human who took the time to send me all the beautiful messages," the singer started.
"I cried tears of joy and was covered in chilly bumps. Your VIDEOS, YOUR POSTS, YOUR countdowns, your playlists and your well wishes, I will cherish forever. I'm grateful to everyone involved, especially, the fans, for the time and level of detail it took to organize such beautiful tributes," she added.
"I admire and respect all of you and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. This is the first year that I really understand what it means to be alive and to live in the moment. It's the first time that I have an understanding of how fragile life truly is, how hard life can be at times, and therefore how important it is to stop and smell the roses during the good times. I thought I knew that at 21 or 30...but I didn't," Beyoncé acknowledged.

"In this business, so much of your life does not belong to you unless you fight for it," she told Harper's Bazaar. "I've fought to protect my sanity and my privacy because the quality of my life depended on it.
"A lot of who I am is reserved for the people I love and trust. Those who don’t know me and have never met me might interpret that as being closed off. Trust, the reason those folks don’t see certain things about me is because my Virgo ass does not want them to see it….It’s not because it doesn’t exist!"
