Вдруг зазвучат за твоей дверью.

И встретишь ты, когда не ждёшь,

И обретёшь, не там, где ищешь.

Иди вперёд и ты придёшь

Туда, где небо станет ближе.

И встретишь ты, когда часы

Начнут бежать быстрей вперёд,

И обретёшь, когда мечты

Исполнятся под Новый год.

И вот тогда ты всё поймёшь,

Тогда ты сердцем всё увидишь.

И встретишь ты, когда не ждёшь,

И обретёшь не там, где ищешь.

And you will meet when you least expect it,

And you will find it, not where you look.

You simply move forward

And you simply breathe.

And you will meet it someday

And you will find it, no longer yearning,

You are finishing a long journey,

But for now... everything is in vain.

And you will meet it when no one can help you in anything,

And you will find it when a ray

of sun touches your skin.

И встретишь ты, когда не ждёшь,

И обретёшь, не там, где ищешь.

Ты просто так вперёд идёшь

И просто так ты дышишь.

И встретишь ты когда-нибудь

И обретёшь, уж не тоскуя,

Заканчиваешь длинный путь,

Ну, а сейчас… всё в холостую.

И встретишь ты, когда ни в чём

Тебе помочь никто не сможет,

И обретёшь, когда лучом

Солнце коснётся твоей кожи.

И встретишь, больше не беги

С извечным криком:"Я не верю!"

Ты обретёшь, когда шаги

This little orangutan, about two years old, was rescued from a small cage where he was imprisoned by a gold miner who kept him as a pet in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Randy, as he has been named, had been fed an entirely unsuitable diet of bananas, grass, bread and water, and had an injured leg. He has been taken to a specialist rehabilitation centre for treatment.

Moi?

It’s been a good year for red squirrels, at least in : a rewilding project led by the charity Trees for Life has seen their range increase by more than 25% in 10 years. This year alone, Trees for Life has relocated 259 red squirrels to woodland habitats where the species was missing, mainly in the northern and northwestern Highlands.

Girlhood in Afghanistan | At the madrasa

Since its takeover in August 2021, the Taliban has again turned women in Afghanistan into second-class citizens. Although hunger and malnutrition run rampant, and clinics and doctors are scarce in this already destitute country, it is especially girls who feel that fundamental human rights simply no longer apply to them. They are allowed to attend school until 7th grade, after which they are denied education

Hajira has little time left at elementary school, tirelessly studies textbooks at home, and joyfully writes numbers on the walls of her house. She lives with her siblings in an extremely poor family in a remote village in a province, east of Kabul. Blanchard met her at a health centre, where she was nursed back to health after several months of illness.

’s children at risk | The devastating impact of air

Natalya Saprunova’s image shows a kindergarten in the capital, where air purifiers have been installed to reduce pollution levels. Four-year-old girls are admitted to hospital with respiratory illnesses, young children undergo lung X-rays, and dozens die from carbon monoxide poisoning, while brown clouds rise from hundreds of thousands of chimneys into the icy winter air that can drop to -30C.

Mongolia’s children at risk | The devastating impact of air pollution

Particulate pollution from burning coal, which accounts for about 70% of the country’s energy generation, has catastrophic consequences, despite being one of the most sparsely populated, with an average of two inhabitants for each square kilometre, compared with about 240 in Germany.

Children in Jharia’s coal mines | Childhoods lost to smoke, fire and an endless struggle for survival

They breathe hot air from smouldering underground fires. They carry sacks instead of books, drink filthy water, and wade barefoot through black mud. And instead of the bell that signals the start of school, they hear the sound of pickaxes. This is what childhood looks like in Jharia, the infamous ‘burning city'.

Children in Jharia’s coal mines | Childhoods lost to smoke, fire and an endless struggle for survival

When houses and shacks collapse into cracks that open up in the hollowed-out ground beneath them, they have to live in ruins. Some crawl out of the coal mine entrances or scurry across smoking rubbish heaps like pitch-black shadows, dressed in rags, faces covered in black dust.

: I hope your family is safe

Since the Ukrainian photographer Anya Tsaruk left her country – to go first to Poland and then Germany – she has repeatedly been asked if her family is safe. More often than not, she doesn’t know what to answer. What does safety mean since the Russian invasion? What is it like to live with the constant threat of drone and missile attacks? The danger is everywhere.

: The journey home

Going to school in Cape Town can be risky, because some areas of the city are controlled by armed gangs. This is especially true in the Cape Flats, a plain where notorious townships were established during the apartheid era. High youth unemployment contributes to gang-related violence. The British photographer Laura Pannack accompanied teenagers on their way home from school.

I don’t want to be that person, but covid isn’t seasonal and sometimes peak in summer for example (in France, it did peak in june and October 2024 — where I got covid for the 2nd time — as well as October 2025).

It’s useful to check websites like health-infobase.canada.ca/wast to have an idea of if the virus is circulating a lot right now. So masking, renewing indoor air, using air purifiers, etc. are useful all day round
