My Dearest Zoha

As I sat alone when you were away, days before your birthday, i had brilliant idea to express your birthday greetings like one ever did or will. This aproach may be insufficient, but the sentiments it carries are as enduring as the stars that watch over us.

Do you recall when first we met, those three months past? You entered my world as softly as autumn leaves settling upon a still pond, yet the ripples you created have touched shores I didn't know existed within me. Your quiet presence, that shy smile you reserve for moments of genuine delight these have become assets I hold dear.

There is a particular quality to your spirit that I've come to admire immensely your ability to be both delicate and resilient, like wildflowers that bend in the breeze but never break. When the world grows loud and harsh, your quiet strength becomes an powerhouse.

I want you to know this, in those moments when you feel unseen, when the world seems indifferent to your light, there is someone who notices (me). Someone who sees the way your eyes brighten when you speak of things that matter to you, the quiet courage with which you face each day.

Our connection, though still new, feels like rediscovering a favorite book familiar in the best way, yet with pages still unread. It's a comfort I didn't know I lacked until I found it in your company.

On this day that marks your journey around the sun, I wish for you the warmth of genuine connection, the joy of small perfect moments, and the peace that comes from knowing you are deeply valued exactly as you are.

Yours most sincerely
A
