For the past 2 years, you have been part of my life’s journey. One of my favourite memories with you was during a time at work when you challenged me to lead a meeting I wasn’t prepared for. Looking back, I now realise you had already seen strengths in me that I hadn’t yet recognised in myself. After the meeting, we had a post-engagement discussion that stayed with me. What I took from that moment is that visibility is the new currency. Everyone has their own strengths, but without communication, confidence, and connection, your value can remain unseen. That experience shaped me deeply, and since then I’ve tried to stay positive, intentional, and visible in everything I do. To me, you’re someone who You are a calm, lightly jovial, patient, empowering, and compassionate sister and friend. You have your flaws like everyone else, but despite all odds, I genuinely enjoy working with you, sharing ideas, discussing life, and dreaming about the future.

For the first time we met, you had immediately established yourself as another work mummy. Dishing out advises and encouragement, free soul! I loved you already. Because you’re an expertise in my career field, we had a lot to talk about and you gave lots and lots of advise. Till today, the support, advises, prayers and words of encouragement never stops.

I learned something from that day: it makes no sense to keep clothes for “special occasions” that may never come. It reminded me how fragile life is, and urged us to hope, strive, and live fully. That is to enjoy today while trusting to see tomorrow. I wish you many more years of health and prosperity, dear. We are a positive lot; we keep moving, growing, hoping, and living.

I have known you for 15 years. Our paths first crossed as colleagues. One of most cherished memories with you goes back to 2021 when our other friend-turned-sister, Sekinat, was about to clock 50 years. You were the beautiful mind behind the idea of surprising her with a spa treat, and together we made it happen a week before her big day. The joy on her face and how deeply she cherished that gift still speaks volumes about your thoughtfulness and the love you pour into others. That day remains special to me for another reason; it was also my very first spa experience. I still remember how memorable, relaxing, and joyful it was, sharing that moment with you both. It wasn’t just a gift for her; it became a lasting memory for me as well. You have a way of creating moments that turn into lifelong memories, and I’m truly grateful for that beautiful chapter we shared together, Sherere 😊. To me, you’re someone who is truly a selfless personality, someone who loves genuinely and brings peace wherever you go.

You never allow your struggles to reflect on your face; you choose instead to pour out kindness, strength, and positivity to everyone around you. That is the depth of your selflessness. You would never easily notice what you are going through because you carry yourself with such grace and calmness, always prioritising others and ensuring they are okay. That kind of strength is not common, and it is one of the many reasons you are so deeply cherished. You are truly a special being, Sherifah, rare, beautiful in spirit, and irreplaceable.

You inspire those around you more than words can fully express. On your special day, I celebrate your life, your journey, and everything you continue to become. May this new year bring you peace, growth, answered prayers, and countless moments of joy. May your strength continue to grow, your dreams continue to unfold, and your impact continue to expand.

I have known you for one year. Our paths first crossed as colleagues. One memory that has stayed with me is that random day when I arrived at work and you were already there. As soon as I walked in, you were so happy to see me that we both did a little dance together, and someone captured the moment on video. The funniest part was hearing someone say, “Mummy and son!” It perfectly reflected the bond we share, and I’ll always cherish that memory. To me, you’re like my mum. As you celebrate this milestone birthday, my heartfelt wish is, Happy Birthday to one of the most special people in my life. From the very first day I joined the team, you believed in me, supported me, guided me, and encouraged me. You didn’t just teach me how to do my job; you helped me grow as a person. Living far away from my family has not been easy, but you’ve cared for me with the same love, concern and discipline as my own mother. You have been a mentor, a guide, a source of strength and, in many ways, a second mother to me. I pray that God blesses you with endless happiness, perfect health, peace and a long life filled with love and joy. May He reward you for every act of kindness and every life you’ve touched, especially mine. Thank you for everything you have done for me. I will never forget it. Happy Birthday to an amazing team leader, an incredible human being, and someone I will always respect and cherish.
