Caring Girl 🩵
Happy Birthday 🎉🥳
Hello Caring Girl.
I don't know where to begin from. Somehow, I want to begin with "the first time I saw you it was love at first sight", but that's not true. 😅 How did I begin this letter on this note in the first place?
Maybe I should try again.
Dear Caring Girl, the first day I saw you, you were wearing a white T-Shirt and blue jeans. On the shirt, there was a print that read "Arielle Perfumes". Your hair wasn't made, but you packed it neatly and somehow boldly.
It was on October 11, last year, the day we had EmpowerHer Conference. You came with our boss, Master Kimz, and he introduced you and the other guy, Al-Hassan as part of his team. You guys were our media guys. I wanted to tell you that you looked familiar, but still, that would have been a lie. And so I just waived the thought.
We would lock eyes for some seconds and it felt like you were listening to my thoughts. How fearful I felt about saying a poem before a crowd of so many girls and women, with cameras everywhere. Thank God Blessing wasn't even there to make me laugh.
I saw you take pictures with Blessing and Kimz and the other guys and I thought, well, this Arielle girl is kinda photogenic, something I am still learning to like.
I told Kimz Tech that I'm learning to be a social media manager and he said he was gonna connect me to his social media manager, Caring. He introduced you as Caring, and then I forgot your name immediately. Because now I'm thinking, so she's not just a perfume brand ambassador, but also a celebrity 😅. Cool!
By the end of the event, I wanted to meet you and ask so many questions, but then there was Blessing and that Nurse Girl 🙃. And I did not want to leave an impression... Blessing knows how to tease me in ways I don't fancy 😪🙈
Two days later, I asked Kimz for your contact and he sent your number with a different name. I thought your name was Caring for two days 😅. And even now that I know your name is Keren, I can't just stop calling you Caring Girl 🥲.
I remember the first time I chatted you. I told you how I thought your name is Caring. Sometimes I'm still tempted to tell you that I'm awestruck by your name. It just feels like it should have a special pronunciation.
We talked about your name and what it means — Glorious Dignity. A powerful name indeed.
You apologised for not remembering my name and I felt like it was okay because I forgot yours immediately after I heard it.
I told you about Social media marketing/account managing and how I'd love to learn from you.
You sent the first voice note when you checked the page I'm managing and said, "You do video editing? That's nice oh. I don't know how to do video editing," followed by a text, "I think we'll both learn form each other."
Somehow, I'm grateful that I have not taught you anything about video editing. I don't know anything too, I'm just a newbie at it.
You asked if I write content and I used the chance to hear your voice again; "Explain please (VN) 🥲"
You'll be excited to know that I'm now a content writer, and I'm loving it. I mean, I've been a content writer and I did not even know. Thank you so much for convincing me to check it out.
Over time, we've had conversations about school, work, business, gratitude, career paths, goals etc. All the while, being thankful for growth. We've talked about how you like taking pictures and how I'm older than my sister by height. I have learned, and I am still learning so much from you.
Remember that day I interviewed you after CWSS? We had planned the questions I was gonna ask you, but then I asked for your "final word" and you whispered into the mic, "Eii Jesus, we did not plan for this." I wanted to laugh my bowels out.
Caring Girl, because I can't stop calling you that 🙃, I want to interview you again and hear you say "we did not plan for this now," a whisper into the mic as you look at me in total "confusement" 🥲
It has always been exciting whenever we meet at an event, whether Conversation With Sam Semako, or JFC, or WFF, or a Dearest Teen Conference. And I love how Kimz is always there, like you're each other's handbags. 😅
I admire your fashion sense too. Coming from one who knows nothing about fashion, I think you dress really beautifully and it makes you glow.
Today you turn a year older. They say that age is just a number, but growth isn't "just".
I am grateful to God for letting our paths cross. I am grateful to God for the young lady that you are today, and the woman you're becoming.
May this year be filled with much more reason to bow in thanks to Abba. May this year be a blessed one. I pray for grace, for strength, more beauty, physically, spiritually, and every otherwise.
You'll walk in all that God has for you
in these year Ali Tiyene Keren. Remain a beauty 🔥




Loved every word!😊
