She went on to express, "This song has been healing especially for me, allowing me to see the glass full and celebrate what i have instead of complain about what I miss."

Speaking about the immense response on her song Soltera, Shakira noted, "I was touched to see how the song also managed to help many of you heal."

"Soltera has become a symbol of an optimistic attitude towards life and together, we have removed the stigma from the word "single" giving it a new meaning," she added.

Shakira concluded her caption with a powerful message as, "Married or single, you can be equally happy or unhappy on one side or the other. What matters is the attitude we put towards whatever we are going through in life."

"Destiny puts reality to us without asking us if we agree, but we put the attitude without asking for forgiveness or permission!" the Waka Waka singer shared.

Soltera was released on September 25, 2024.
