To be Mindful, None Like You shows an elderly woman sitting in a room with a girl, who is probably her daughter. The woman has a wrapper decorated with tin black lines and patterns in blue and yellow tied to her chest and a corresponding scarf tied to her head while her daughter is dressed in a white, sleeveless blouse and a bright yellow skirt. From their outlook one could guess they are having a conversation and the woman is probably expressing her concerns, advising and admonishing her daughter to be mindful of her behavior and character as a growing girl approaching adulthood. Conversations of this nature are very important in guiding the teenage girl child to navigate the numerous challenges experienced as she grows from puberty to adulthood. It is the duty of any truly loving, caring and concerned mother to ensure her daughter avoids mistakes and finds her true purpose in life as she grows older.
