Seeking asylum

Hoy me ha venido a la mente una escena que me ocurrió hace poco más de un año, quizás bastante más porque con la pandemia, el concepto del tiempo lo tenemos un poco nubloso. Resultó que cuando una vieja amiga valenciana me visitó a casa, al observar una foto mía, de hará poco más de tres años, que estaba en la puerta de la nevera, me dijo: “¡qué diferente estás en esa foto! no parece que seas tú”. Hoy, al abrir la nevera y volverla a ver, la voz de ella ha resonado en mis tímpanos y honestamente, por más que miro esa foto no puedo ver “eso” tan peculiar que ella vio de diferente en mí y que yo soy tan obtuso de seguir sin poder verlo.

こんにちは、なぎさです。
朝から、ずっと雨がふっているなーと思っていたら、梅雨入りが発表(はっぴょう)されました。

話したこと🗣
こんにちは、なぎさです。
6月6日、関東甲信地方で梅雨入りしたと発表されました。
梅雨は、「ばいう」ともいいます。梅雨は6月にたくさん雨がふることです。梅雨入りは、梅雨の季節に入ること、梅雨がはじまることです。
梅雨には雨がたくさんふります。せんたくもの🧺が乾(かわ)きません。こまります。
でも、梅雨の季節には、紫陽花(あじさい)と花菖蒲(はなしょうぶ)という花がさきます。どちらも、きれいな花です。
みなさんは、梅雨に何をしますか？
雨がふりますから、家の中で本を読んだり、勉強したりするのもいいかもしれません。
でも、逆に、お気に入りの傘(かさ)をもって、おでかけするのはどうでしょう？紫陽花や花菖蒲を見に行くのもいいと思います。
それでは、またね～。

梅雨入り(つゆいり) しました！☔

As the US navigates what some experts have described as a loneliness epidemic, employers and employees across the country are trying to address what for many people is a lack of real friendships at work.

It's not a new thing, but remote work has only intensified the problem, says leadership expert Michael Bungay Stanier.

"People have this desire to be seen and be heard," Bungay Stanier says, but on video calls, the group gets right down to business rather than having the natural, informal interactions of a real room. It reduces people to "little heads in squares."

It's not easy to talk about this lack of friendship at work "because it feels like a shameful confession," Bungay Stanier says. But his clients are beginning to bring up the subject.

Awkward as it may be, these are conversations worth having, according to psychology professor Laurie Santos.

At-work friendships are good for employers, too. Santos says research shows that workplace friendships and a sense of belonging are vital to employees' happiness — and companies' success.

We assume that friendships at work are "a nice-to-have, not a need-to-have," she said.

But "maybe one of the reasons we're all so disengaged at work ... is that we're actively not investing in the thing that might matter the most for our happiness at work, which is our connection with other people," Santos said.

Some large companies began paying more attention to employee health long before the pandemic, often focusing on physical health.

Today, more employers are looking at ways to really improve people's mental health and well-being.

And experts say there is a lot that companies can do, even rethinking physical spaces in the offices with relationships in mind.

More than anything, remember the importance of everyday greetings at work — even if they make you a bit uncomfortable. A simple hello, Bungay Stanier says, could be the beginning of the end of loneliness.
