Lauryn Hill is currently serving a three-month prison sentence at Danbury’s Federal Correctional Institution for tax envision, but the took some time to update fans and loved ones on her mental status in a recent letter.

Posted on her Tumblr account, Hill said that prison life is an “adjustment” but she’s received a “general warm reception” from the other inmates.

The letter reads:

Ms. Hill has received a lot mail, and would like to let everyone know that she is doing well. She also asked me to pass along this message:

“I have known since very young to look for the purpose and lesson in everything, including the trials. Although it has taken some adjustment, I cannot deny the favor I have encountered while in here, and general warm reception from a community of people who despite their circumstances, have found unique ways to make the best of them. Thank you for the letters of concern and well wishes that I receive in the mail every day. Although I may not be able to write everyone back, please know that they have been received, read, acknowledged, and appreciated. With Love back, MLH”
