गोंद / Adhesive

Kaushal Kishore

टूटा तो मैं भी हूं
कई बार,
लेकिन जाने कौन सी
गोंद है तुम्हारे पास,
जो देता है मुझे जोड़
हर बार,
कुछ और मजबूती से…

💔💔💔

I too have been broken
many times,
but I don’t know
what adhesive you have,
that binds me together
every time,
with more strength…

♫ Another Saturday Night ♫ — Filosofa’s Word

On Monday, I played a ‘Monday’ song, Come Monday, and as a result have gotten several suggestions for other ‘Monday’ songs!  So, after finishing Saturday Surprise last night, I thought maybe I’d dig through my repertoire for a ‘Saturday’ song and this was the first one I came up with.  It was actually a toss-up […]

Twenty-five seconds showers — Filosofa’s Word

Originally posted on musingsofanoldfart: Regardless of whether elected officials want to talk about this, we have a global water crisis that has been building for some time. Here in the states, it manifests itself in three ways: more severe droughts in drier areas, evaporating and depleting water sources, and too many lead pipes still being…

Long COVID-19 Ruled a Disability in the UK

The Equality Act and Long COVID-19

There are three considerations that the Equality Act 2010 uses to determine if a condition is a protected disability:

  • There must be a physical or mental impairment.
  • The disability lasts for longer than 12 months.
  • The disability causes a substantial impact on one’s day-to-day activities.

While not everyone’s experience of long COVID-19 qualifies them under these requirements, some people’s circumstances do. The caretaker’s tribunal decision took into account that long COVID-19 symptoms can fluctuate over time, still qualifying the caretaker as having a disability that lasted at least 12 months.

“We’re very keen to work with employers, to help them to understand that in fact, in many cases, long COVID will make the worker a disabled person under the Equality Act 2010,” said Deirdre Costigan, national officer at UNISON, the U.K.’s largest public service union, headquartered in London.

Whether long COVID-19 can be consistently covered by the Equality Act is unclear, because there is such a wide variety of symptoms and the disease is still new and understudied. “There have been calls for long COVID to be added to the legislation as a deemed disability, but the difficulty, the resistance with that is long COVID is impacting different people in different ways,” said Julie Temple, an attorney with Birkett Long in Essex, England.

Hope again–espero novamente

Coisas da SIL

Estou esperançosa
De novos sorrisos
Novo ânimo foi depositado
Na estrada do meu coração.

Ando sem nervosa
Parece sem noção
Mas percebo que não.

O arco-íris nem sempre aparece
Mas está ali
De vez em quando um broto
De cores surgem
E alegram a sina
Que antes se extinguia na escuridão.

Que bom o caminho
Que seguimos já não é mais antigo
E feliz estou por saber que sempre
Tem alguém indo comigo também.

Hope again

Hope Again

I’m hopeful
Of new smiles
New spirit has been deposited
On the road of my heart.

I’m not nervous
seems clueless
But I realize not.

The rainbow doesn’t always appear
but it’s there
Every now and then a bud
Of colors arise
And make the fate happy
That before was extinguished in the darkness.

how good the way
That we follow is no longer old
And happy I…
