The headers are not descriptions of all the content, since the text has been made in a diary form.

 

 F1.   "An old picture of mine of a lila ukulele with pictures in it, which I have learned somehow eases things away from being ruined without a reason, but brings very foreign cultural influence that I am not sure of if it is good at all or not, kind of religious instrument but nowadays I have another red ukulele too and it too seems to have some effect on the same direction, an instrument of the paradise islands.


But I have mainly played some familiar chords on these. Songs I play on a keyboard which has some 200 different instrument sopunds."

 https://picturesfrommyhome.blogspot.com/

 F2.   One thing I have learned to value a lot and that solves amazingly well life's problems, is following one's dreams, like for example as a kid I dreamed of becoming a singer-songwirter and sang at home and played an instrument. Often when people refuse to give you a place in something, that is a question of them thinking that you are not that kind of person. But when you follow your highest dreams, it is clearly in sight that you really wish such, and you adapt to the demands of such things with your whole being, and propably so that the effect lasts for your whole lifetime, so that you really are such kind of person and so there just naturally is a place in such for you. Often that means setting your demands quite high, like for example some dream of being a boss. All do not have such dreams, so maybe such dreams make you adopt more characteristics and skills needed in such life, for example such values and things that one can build upon such likings. And of jobs there are many kinds of versions of even the same job, so that an entirely different kind of person finding ajob in the same does not mean that your assets would be bypassed. 

F3.   "Just some attempt


I attempted something song like, like singing in a group, with the theme singing experience of life. But the problem is that it was like explaining it to others, and not like learning it by oneself, like a song should be made. And besides my mood was not so singing experience of life, more like somewhat hoarse."   https://composingmelodies.blogspot.com

F4. "How objective/military is much the same as atmospheric

Today when I went to the bus stop, there was at the parking lot of the neighbouring house a red car on the road and two big men speaking Russian. One of them seemed like men from around here but the other one looked like Russian military or something of the kind. The question seemed to be: How a red car goes with the military? My answer is that if you are motivated to your work, also if it is in the army at times of war, if things are well for your work, your feel like saying "Great!", you feel positive, so it is much so that your positive feelings guide toward full health and things healthily in the world, to things well for your work, and negative are marks things being poorly for your work. See my paradise theory book for this http://2013paradise.blogspot.com/2017/08/basics-of-my-paradise-theory.html . But it means that you do not count as feelings laziness, comfort and things like that, at least not much but more like pay attention to what is the motivation for them: are tired, do you need a pause, do you need food, company or what is it?
Another answer is that objective perspective, also if it is military, like seeing the structures in a landscape, with proportions right, is much the same as an atmospheric view to living in that landscape. I tried to compose it, but I feel that I did not so well succeed. The moment wasn't good for composing, I more like felt unskilled.

F5.   "Moral

Moral that is light to bear, not exactly a melody, more like it described in note form.

F6.   "Attempt at enlightenment

Yesterday I tried to compose about enlightenment, but it was more like thinking of what is needed, and not ,meditation or the kind-

"Attempt at composing
More like thinking of it. My idea was that usually an emphazis on wisdom of life is needed plus cuvuliced wats and the main current is ages ofl healthy natural ways of living and healthy spirit. I guess that my text https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2015/11/healthy-ways-of-living.html could help.

F7. I just said this to my poodle, I wonder if it hasn't noticed himself. Chores and things done typically do not demand that you would do them in a certain way detailedly, but isntead allow lots of variation even if the task demands some skills. Like if you need to look detailedly, you can for example just live leisurely and have senses open, or you can be pedantic and concentrate on looking detailedly, or you may think obje´ctively and have a clear sense of sight in commection with it, or you may practise sports and that opens your sense of sight to more vivid and clear, or you may just look at the things that interest you. 

F8.   6th of December 2020, Finland's Independence Day   A detailed way of looking can be very beautiful if one has wisdom of life along and uses a natural way of looking like sports and an interest in painting teaches, a way which has atmospheres along and observes colours, lights etc, ways of living and understands well what one sees, what it means to life. One also needs some independency, since that brings an ability to meet situations wisely, to not to be at their mercy. Independency is suypported by civiliced wisdom, which carries far and gives safety and a alife according to feelings and best understanding. Looking at things detailedly does not ruin them, since wisdom of life that emphasizes healthy natural ages old ways of living on all areas of life, sees the power dynamics of situations and people's motivation and what their life situations are like and how they develop. And Finnish view of how it is good to live in a society, like "Live and let others live" https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2012/10/live-and-let-others-live.html for example, solves just about all the problems in it, if it is followed. And so things are on a strong ground when one uses a detailed photograpf like way of looking isntead of blurred eyesight.

F9. Finns do not have a tradition of celebrating much anything else than Christmas and birthdays, Finns do not seem to have the skills of celebrating, since when you ask foreigners what is it how one ought to celebrate, they say something finer than usual and eating. But if Finns think something is better than the ordinary, like for exampel music, fine conversations, valued traditions, beauty of nature and art, we think that it ought to be made a part of the veryday life, and so we once again lack the finery for celebrations. Today is the independence day of Finland and there was in the news told about independence day traditions in other countries, and it sounded even more problematic than our lack of celebrating (I have isially burned a candle on the window, like is teh tradition, and that's my amount of independence day celebrations.) since there may be a confluict about who is in power, and foreign interests too. But Finns think that independence is for the good life of the people, and somewhat also for the good life of similar kinds of people in the wide world, so that it ought to be celebrated just in ways that help such, which of course often is for Finns ordinary Finnish life, and maybe following how others celebrate for the nation to satisfy the inetrnational demand for independence day celebrations all over the world. But as such it seems quite nonproblematic, without much foreign interests except in what comes to the official celebrations in the mdeia, anbd as far as I understand thise are kept quite much like what is asked for but maybe mild and quite Finnish so as to avoid misunderstandings of who and where we are.

F10. 8th of December 2020, Finnish Music's Day   I used to have my keyboard against a wall, tehre seemed to be a nice neat place for it there, and I played it almost every day, but so my music became flat like the empty wall and my wisdom of life was in practice lacking in spirit. I remembered that as a child I had always played my accordeon in a place from which I saw tree branches, and it had somehow fitted the spirit of accordeon music, teaching wisdom of life and making a connection with traditions. So I changed my keyboard to where I could see trees, even though the place was not so good, and after a while I noticed that I did not look at the trees while I played, but still after a long time, is it two years or more, I noticed that I had so regained much of the spirit I had had in my wisdom of life, and the direction was still toward better spirit and happier healthy kind of life.

F11. Around my last birthday in the late summer I did not know if I ought to celebrate it somehow or not at all, but I made a melody of how it seemed to go quite well, and I wrote about birthdays and the passing of the years to a blog of mine https://fromhighlightohighlight.blogspot.com/

F12. My childhood Christmasses, and also often Christmasses later too because of memories, were not so happy since I did not get along with the other family members, but I liked very much the Christmas tree and other Christmas traditions. Especially much I liked visiting the graveyard: big trees, snow, families together remembering those who had passed away, a sea of candles under the trees and a view of how generations follow another, at the way home Christmas songs in the car radio.

F13.   " I was born in Helsinki and lived there over 30 years. So I heard quite many versions of why the capital has such a name, but mostly the opinion was fully according to the Finnish saying "A name does not make a man worse if the man does not make the name /reputation worse." i.e. that one ought not pay attention to names but to things themselves instead.

Tervola was maybe the best Finnish name, so it maybe was considered as the name of the capital: "health sings" which both are Finnish values and Finnish skills. But the Swedish translated it wrong to "helsin". Or that the name originally was meant to be "health sings" or the like but foreigners in Helsinki took to heart the associaltion "hell sin" to it and did amazingly much evil, and so Finns thought that it is better to have a Finnish version of that association to the name Helsinki (-ki means also) so that things would not go so criminal.

Finland is a neighbour of Sweden and for things to work out well solutions need to be well thought of and that means that one should have honest picture of how things are as a starting point, and with Swedes that worked out only with the association "hell sin" since they tend to lie in imago oriented ways. 

If a place has a beautiful name that is a value people there respect, some follow only the name and bypass other things and so if one has good quality objectivity as a goal, one ought to take into account everything in one's thinking and that is why Helsnki is maybe named so that it has the association: "hell sin too" must be taken into account in thoughts. 

Finland used to have very good quality of life due to wisdom of life and healthy ways of living and objective thinking with a view of the whole and a well running society, so that other nations, other cultures looked like hell and hell sin in comparison. A capital is much for associating with the rest of the world, but a communication was lacking since Finns did not know what difficulties the other countries needed to overcome, and so to gain communication and to be able to help the others to wise ways of living, Finns choose a name of the capital that is not good but which helps us to help the rest of the world to a better future, muvh happier.

Finland was very harmonical and fractureless, with wise people countryside, but big towns and the capitaö had foreign influencies,of which the young adults coming from the more countryside areas of Finland had to be warned."   https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2015/10/names-and-symbols-in-finnish-culture.html

 F14.   It sometimes happens that some valued member of the society gets attacked and people around do not know what to do since they do not have skills for such a high position and such big interests of power, and so the situation easily changes to people being quiet and things deteriorating to criminal. If people do not have enough courage and skills to take part in such, that is still different from being quiet. One ought to keep up the basic rationality and basic values in a societyby saying aloud things that are such basic level ideas of the situation, like "ordinarily one ought to... since such is good for the soceíety. If it then is like... one ought to take that into account by common sense, for example..." so that the lacking children's level truths and oter basic things get right in the thoughts of most, since when feelings or lack of social eye or other question obscure one's view, the basic level things ought to be reminded and made easy to understand. And the views of a large group make things often something in that direction, and so the worst problems of things going almost opposite of how they ought to ge, disappear.

 F15.   10th of December 2020   I made a meditation advice to my Finnish blog about curing http://parantamisesta.blogspot.com . It is for beginners but made thinking of cancer patients, just in case they might need it.
"To such would help MEDITATION, not any bady observation "meditation", but instead ordinary meditation of observing breathing and living in connection with the mandscape around and life around like meditation in motion and of the body observe more mostly just how is good to move. 

In breathing meditation just follow your breathing, observe it and it's effects (healthy sides of them, in a healthy way, with wisdom of life, etc) on the body and mind and to oneäs contact with the environment etc, in fact just ordinarily breathe and feel the air moving in your nostrils etc, and aim to be naturally, without forcing, sit in a good posture,  still but not stiff, but instead like is sporty and a naturally straight back like sports hobbies bring, and aim also at living according to feelings, and thoughts come and go but don't ponder on them but isntead concentrate on feeling sensations and be in balance and enjoy the present moment and the sensation s of beauty brought by nonforcing attention and a somehow wiser way to associate with things, 

not so squarely thinking, not so clumsyly pushy nor artificial but instead according to motivation and valuing the everyday life's basic things done, their ages old basic form, basic current, and find from it a nonforcing way to be fully awake in living one's everyday life, which is natural the same way as breathing is or some other nonforcing basic life, when one likes it or needs a rest pause from the noise of everyday life, and one ought to aim at compassion too, such is good for attention, when one goes along how people and animals do things and not artificially forcing things to some form, but the idea is to just sit relaxedly with back straight and follow one's breathing and as a side effect learn a good nonforcing way to use attention, in other words meditation."

F16.   11th of December 2020   If one does not have anything to do and one longs for practical things to do, one can do things that all do not value or like so much but which someone needs to be done, like "would someone carry this and that to where they are going", "would someone find where is...", "would someone help in..." etc. If one has such things to do without being used to so much physical activity, one ought after them take a short rest in warm, or if cool feels musical and light and one has a satisfied feelings som then in coollike feels good and healthy and such creates a quietened mind, fond of looking the landscape with the sense of atmospheres impoirtant, while warm creates relaxedness and unties muscle tensions.

F17. If some maybe elderly person lives a gnome like life with handicrafts, home life and old time sstyle home, maybe cool, but is not happy but instead quite stuck and uneasy. Then it maybe would help to wash things that one is often in contact with like woolen socks and clothes and sur´faces that one often touches, for example once in every two weeks is much better than not at all, and as far as I know it makes one less stuck in one's habits and more like with new beginnings. Likewise going to places, getting room to live in, investing in the theoretically cvorrect healthy natural ages old best answers even if those are not the most typical for your own group, refreshes air and makes one as if with new starts, as far as I know.

F18.   12th of 12th 2020   Generally letting things go very dirty amd them using a strong detergent isn't good for one's wisdom of life and one's health and how one feels, since dirt is kind of heavy to bear and detergent too antiseptic or otherwise not energetically good for life. Instead one ought to keep things quite clean so that they are either fully clean like washed or after a short time's ordinary healthy kind of use so that they have some ordinary healthy bacteria of one's oewn healthy kind of life, and are so energetically good, much better for wisdom of life and healthy spirit. So a mild detergent may often be better than a strong one, but such depends on the climate: how much there is bacteria around.

F19.   13th of December 2020   Seeking better life by starting towards one's dream job is maybe better than finally finding some roughly such job, since jobs are often made comfortabel with extra food while searching toward one's ideal gets mane things right and is kind of open-minded.   http://todreamjob.blogspot.com

F20.   All do not like this type of gnomes or this type of text, so please do not recommend it, especially not repeatredly to those who do not like it's style, spirit or other major features.

 F21.   " If some time at home there is some place that is more difficult to clean, then the end result may depend on when you try to clean it, for example what is in your mind of social thing or things done, and so the next time the end result can be better, for example better thought of and more light, more strenght.

14. maaliskuuta 2019    My mom taught me to clean like a machine: to one place starightforwardly some kind of result while on the edged like after an explosion. I think that it is better to clean and tidy in some other way: thinking what kind of whole is this, how and why would it be good this way, why is this a good way tyo clean, and so feel better afterwards and also when tidying and cleaning.

I think that cleaning ought to be common sense like way to make places good for living and doing, somewhat like a healthy animal cares for it's feathers or fur, and so it is good for it, even magnifient to live. But then instead of a forced way ofg doing one ought to follow one's own motivation, use good ways of doing, learn for life about good ways of doing, rythm, about good practical possibilities, about differencies of ways of doing, etc.  Tidying and lceaning ought not be like a square: here begins cumbersomely and one just has to do, then one h´just has to do labour, and then just ends here was it. One ought to have motivation, practical deed along it, good enough physical fitness so as to not to get squeezed because of the task, lots of common sense and enough social distance for one to do right choices, that have learned about the rest of one'slife and not stuck collapsing ones, way of doing energetic and not forcing oneself, farsighted with healthy spirit and not square like."   https://picturesfrommyhome.blogspot.com/2019/08/about-cleaning-and-tidying.html

"31th of January 2020
I do not know for sure, but my impression is that methods of cleaning ought to depend on the person, since a different character does the cleaning job in different ways and so needs different equipment, soaps etc. Only if you are a good team, can you copy some of the other person's ways and succeed, even though it may be that some equipment is good for the task while some other equipment is not. But for example which other professions you like and admire, use their ways of thinking and doing, tehir values, may affect a lot what is a good way of doing. Also, if you for example wet the floor, you as a person typically wet it another amount than some other person, and so if you want to remove the dirt, you have to wait a different time and repeat different number of tyimes with a different tecxhnique too. A good guide for good ways is your idea of what you like: you maybe like it because it works for you and your favoyurite ways of working, while some other could for example be too dangerous for your eys and skin. And so it also varies from person to person, in how big bunches and how often doing you achieve the best result: do you find giood enjoyable ways of working immediuately but tire and start crying or do your start clumsily but then find an enjoyment of doing but overdo it compared to your forces?"   https://picturesfrommyhome.blogspot.com/2019/08/about-cleaning-and-tidying.html

F22.   14th of December 2020   This year I have sent this gnome skills text of mine to several Santa Clauses, and so I have noticed that Santa Claus lands (21. Dec. 2020  of USA at least, but remember that the effect is with Christmas like miracle cure skills, yet exhausting to some extend) have year around the burden of helping the ill and the miserable, and so from the Santa Claus lands one gets influences of people who associate a lot with the much ill, exhausted etc. And now under Christmas the phenomenom is muc clearer: one gets as an influence a tendency of things to collapse and turn toward being like ill. The same isif one seeks for influences of those who much make things Chrustmas like already now,, since those mostly help the ill and exhausted. But when I a moment ago thought of not taking any such influences, especially niot much, and by myself preparing home etc for Christmas, that brought a nice warm Chrustmas like atmosphere and peace of mind.

F23. Often food shops and other professionals are concentrated into meeting the most demanding cases that are clearly their job, and so via them one gets influences from people who are much ill, or otherwise miserable, and so since they are a source of influencies in that area of lufe for just about all, those nfluences make things collapse somewhat, and I guess that in the long term the effect is bigger. So it would help a lot if professionals would take the average everyday life and the skilled as important parts of their job, so that onbe would get inflkuencies from them.

F24.   Succeeding in having an enjoyable sports hobby often seems to demand labelling sports sexual. I guess that it is so because then it is a question of what kind of spirit and type & amount of activity one would like to have the rest of one's life, and so kind of opposite of with a half mind and a half effort. But if it is just sports, it really is enjoyable and fun and keeps one healthy and fit, happy too.

F25. 15th of December 2020    "if one would wish for the waiting for Christmas to begin already, one can cook rise porridge (: 2dl water + 2dl porridge rise, let it boil some two minutes ultil almost all water has been absorbed by rise. Add then 1 liter ordinary milk and let it boil some 4o minutes, stir every now and then. Add some salt and it is ready.) and as one cooks pray slightly something beautiful, so that life kind of quietens toward waiting for Christmas."  One can shed to the surface sugar and some spice - is it called cinnamon? - that has reddish brown colour and kind of warm taste, dry powder that colours the surface where it lands, or then just sugar  http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html

F26.   Typically whether one is allowed something or not, whether one gets a chance to it or not, depends on how much capacity one has, or more exactly it depends on whether one has used all one's capacity to arrangements, reserved it for them or whether one has made theoretically correct ideal solutions as one's guidelines and is quite free,with ful capacity and lots of healthy kind of wisdomof life. For such ideals my advices about healthy natural ages old ways of living on all area sof life work well: http://finnishskills.blogspot.fi/2015/11/healthy-ways-of-living.html 

 F27.   Some think that incresing skill makes one bored and less motivated, but I think that at some higher level of wisdom of life and skills one can do in more free ways and find motivation fromother areas of life to what one does and from variations of ways of doing, like feels motivated and wise, fun too, since the skilled has more options and if one is free enough, one can much of the time use other areas of life fully, like feels to suit the momnent and is ok for the task at hand, and so one can learn for example new kinds of jobs and new talents, and one's theoretical view on skills gets better. If one has wisdom of life as a goal, one can so gain more like a magic touch, both at the sphere of work to be done and in what comes to quality of life.

F28. 16th of December 2020   Often people are afraid of other interest groups and malicious people doing them the opposite of what woulöd be good for them, and that is one reason they may lie about such things. On the other hand such individuals and groups typically want to gain power and maybe money, be strong and do well in life compored to others. And so they rely on someone wiser, for example their mom's views of civiliced wisdom and of what is a benefical thing to invest in life, and in so doing they maybe aren't aware of how unsure and how near mom's personal life such views are, and so they tend to get recommendations toward the values and dream professions of other social relationships of thei momor the like person, and so they get fed up with such things that are not suite dto all. Instead they should have gone to library and asked the librarian books that would suit them. Or go to some course. If it is a question that people around value some weird things that seem to have too much power, it isn't a fight, it is instead a difference in dream professions and professions suited to the area, and so they should themselves move to live in some other trown that has theirt own favourite rpofessions much liked and nothing of those not at all suitable yet somebody's jobs.   http://todreamjob.blogspot.com   and about moving   http://picturesfrommyhome.blogspot.com   but pay attention if you are first in a wrong kind of environment, maybe you are used to too low quality, too far from your own likings and type of person thatr you are, so that care to choose a place that you are alike with in your soul, in your likings

F29.   17th of December2020   Some foreigners think that ciuviliced wisdom is so different from the nature that the nature has nothing of the kind and is kind of criminal. But in Finland we tend to have trees also in towns, and so when someone thinks of something and looks at a landscape at the same time, there often are trees in the alndscape, and so one tends to place some wholes next to trees since trees make them easier to think as pictures, like is a natural good objectiveway to think. It goes something like this whole is like this and that whole like that, and thinks it somewhat alike two neighbouring trees that one happens to look at. It is not an exact analogy but instead a helping aid, but it makes me think that wild animals looking at nature landscapes have something like pictures of the world and even objective views and understanding about happenings of life in the landscape, so that they too have social eye, wisdom of life and a wise picture of the world + communication.

F30. 18th of December 2020   "Writing a good blog

My poodle Banjo said that he would like to start an English blog, and star with a Christmas greeting and as a present the blog. The greeting would say something like: "Banjo the Poodle wishes a Good Christmas and a Happy new Year 2021!" and have a picture of Banjo with a Christmas flower. 

I said that the blog ought to have just best pieces of how Banjo has been on an adventure in my other blogs, and not just try to write a blog and write a blog, etc, since such is work like and does not give the writer any hint of how to write. Instead I ought to need highlights, atmospheres, sources of joy, insights, wisdom of life, smnall tales, and good pictures of nature, pets, home life or the like."   In Finnsih https://ohjeitabloggaamiseen.blogspot.com/


 

F31. In my twenties I learned lots of wisdom of life by reading poems and pondering about the wisdom of life in them. Where was such fractureless happiness to be found in my own life and in the world? How did it depnd on the eprson, how would I find something of the kind, like the personal insight of each poet to how life in meaningful, ahppy, ages old, feeling in a strong wise way, sensitive so that one learns wisdom of it, build on ages old strong ground, etc. Healthy wasy of living,sports and music helped in this.

F32.   20th of December 2020   Some ponder why if some human makes cunning plans and does evil deeds, why is such forbidden, while if an animal is robust and does similar with vigour, for example steals a seed that it wants, why is that then allowed, at least allowed more. A human who makes cvunning plans, has replaced what was meant for good life, by technical calculations that have negative effect on lives, and so such is forbidden since it causes harm. While an animal which makes a vigorous version of a similar deed, gets it's vigour from the healthy natural ages old ways of living that are the ground for life and the good satiusfying best version of such deeds, like being successful, being well motivated, doing according to one's best understanding of the situation, etc, and so such is allowed much more and even hoped for.

F33.   21st of December 2020 Winter Solstice    Winter solstice is to be lived quite quietly, normal life but paying attrention to that symbolics would not go badly, for example not drinking unusually much black coffee but drinking coffee with milk isntead if such is closer to one's normal symbolics, since some think that such symbolics can be used to partly ruin some parts of the coming year. Winter solstice isn't the darkest day of the year, since darkness of the day depends on the cloudiness only and of whether there is snow. Snow lightens even the night to twilight with no big darkness. Wiunter solstice  is the shortest day of the year, and that is why the time around it is called the darkest time of the year, even though Christmas is so near that it kind of lightens the atmosphere. Winter solstice is also a time to pay attention to what one thinks and especially to things that tend to affect atmosphere, since sometimes when one thinks of for example someone who has recently died, that may ruin the atmosphere, while the coming Christmas may make it a normal day, but such depends on the people around, how they take the winter solstice, what they happen to think about it. Winter solstice is depending on teh year either 21st or 22nd of December. Winter solstice is a time to reflect on the lenght of the day: how it varies so much across the year that the difference in the amount of sun light affects weathers so much that it creates the seasons which affect life hugely. And soon it will be Christmas. And quite in the beginning of Januatry one already notices how mornings get light earlier and earlier each morning.


F34. This year autumn my poodle Banjo remarked that somewhat Muumi like fat nurses that are motivated to curing are somewhat like the Japanese spitz Vaapukka that I used to have, and so they too would be likely tolearn to have miracle curing skills. Vaapukka learned at least partly from me and that was my blog about curing http://curingguesses.blogspot.com (in fact the Finnish original http://parantamisesta.blogspot.com please read especially the index) and the basiuc main method was to make livelier and lighter, and if there was a contact, a good communication to get the patient to do it himsefl/herself/itself and just a hint from the nurse. Vaapukka also was somewhat religious and the curing got support from that and from some love of the nature and animal's wisdom. Now, I just watched from the news how Santa left his home with presents by a raindeer sledge, since there is only a few days until Christmas, and it kind of left me wondering, could most people with especially good will but also somewhat more fat if meeting ill is a burden (take care to avoid getting illnesses from them!) and somewhat religious to gain peace and good environment for curing, and insight from the wild nature too, learn to have such moracle curing skills? Christmas sounds like a good time for such, but there is the danger of illnesses coming fromsuch - those are a typical big burden of medicine professionals. I have no such background, I have just the name that is roughly "Health sings", and as younger I was especially interested in healthy naturaöl ages old ways of living, but lately I haven't had much chace for them.

"Making livelier
Things making livelier are among others the fascination of the ongoing season, the fascination of music and it's beauty, prayer that make one more alive, the beautiful atmosphere of the summer hymn, sunshine and lush greenery, bird song, being according to feelings, with healthy spirit, being relieved, something doing good, beautiful course of action in the world, getting room for one's real self with a healthy spirit, getting free, holiday and free time, naturality, not forcing ways, sensing atmospheres, fruits and vegetables, ..."

F35.   I just learned how to compose an ode to someone that one loves. I had been composing today earlier after a long pause, and I sat looking at my apricot poodle Banjo, which was laying and looking, and I thought of saying to it how magnifient to live witha poodle with such fine characteristics as he has, but so I sang the atmosphere of that feeling or thought, and then plotted the melody down somehow, but it is was somewhat Russian sounding melody.


 Here is how to learn to compose music:

"Song inspired by the moment's atmosphere
Now that trees and bushes are getting their leaves, instead of Eurovision song contest, I feel that the nature would somehow long for humans too to sing, maybe like this, a little bit like on the summer cottage or an freely organized choir or singing at home, like feels to suit the moment.
29.4.2017 A singing skill from a few years ago came to my mind today morning, when grass was most places already green, sun was shining, birds sang and the green plants on my window created a feel of green, there was like the summer time a haze like atmosphere in the air. So with that atmosphere came to my mind a tune that I roughly knew, or something in the direction, so I sang it in a way that emphasized the fascination of the atmosphere, like doves or yodling(?) of the Alps or composing, creating sound like the atmosphere, not according to rigid forms but singing especially the parts that are musical, emphasizing the atmoshphere tones, like assembling from pieces of different strenght, somehow a very natural song and atmospheric, a little bit like what a composer seeks for with his/her tune: a moment with such an atmosphere but richer one, and then singing it naturally, not la-la-laa or the like as if from notes but instead from the places that the atmosphere touches oneself, one is fascinated by such an experience, but somehow on a general level and not a murmur of personal life.
This singing skill comes from trying to learn wider expression to be able to sing emotionally like this or a song like that or with a clear atmosphere, impressively or whatever, many kinds of colours in voice, many ways to approach song as one oneself is naturally, since there are moments in life, spirits and many different songs. So when one then picks from that spectrum according to the moment, but somewhat like song being partly carried away by the wind, not of even strenght, one manages to describe the atmosphere tones of the moment, not only in tones of voice but also with singing skills, somehow naturally."

"An easy way to write down the melodies, but I am not sure if iut is right: https://composingmelodies.blogspot.com/2019/11/about-plotting-down-melodies.html"

F36.   Composing a hymn is a different thing, but I guess that one can use the same piece of advice about how to produce a melody like the atmosphere. As far as I understadn, a hymn is the atmosphere of some place where there is frcatureless nature and it's wisdom emphasizes virtues needed in a good society, and offers some view of how such fractyureless atmospheric society is possiblke, what it is build upon and what it is like in at,osphere, and that is composed: some moment wandering there, like Finlandia Hymn is about skiing on sunny spring winter landscape somewhere in nature with open spaces and trees and lots of snow, and somehow that fracturelessness is a good model for society yet familiar for almost all.

 F37.   26th of December 2020   For one to have a hobby, it helps if the environment, at least family and a hobby group of people who like such a hobby and support it also to the lives of others, thinks that such a hobby is a good idea for the indivudual and surely needed. A hobby that one likes is much better than sometyhing one is not interested in.

F38.   A human does not learn teh better the more skilled the forefigure is. If the forefigure is very skilled, he/she goes through masses of information and takes it into account in skilled ways in a very short time, and so one learns nothing but instead is just a disturbance for the skilled. One learns bets from those who are specialiced to be teachersof people of one's own skill level, if one just has the endirancy to study and really tries to learn. A good forefigure is a person who still partly is at the phace oflearning those things oneself, so that one does clearly and emphasizes just the major points, uses a similare perspective and has virtues of which the student understadns by oneself that such things can be useful. 

Many also have a dream profession, to which's demands they like to adapt with their who le life, so that they can in those things learn from the very skilled and talented, much above the level from which they otherwise could learn. Some hobby like things are such too, but maybe then one could like a job with similar features.

F39.   " How one feels about cleaning and tidying, and what one's mood is, depends on what is one's approach and which moment one starts the task. If one does not care when, but just forces oneself to the task, that feels like against one's own will and so leaves a nasty feeling and a not so well working way of doing the work, which then somewhat is seen in the result too. But if one thinls that one would like to clean today,to get things nice and clean, a comfortable enviornment that is good to live in, and that one would like some practicvaö to do, like washing for example, clean water, and some motion which one would like to do in a good way, and that one would like to be active and energetic the amount that suits one's character, and so spend tome time in cleaning too. If then on soem such moment one starts the task and has enough peace for it to work out well, it leaves a nice feeling and that is somewhat seen also in the results. So one can also learn better ways of doing."   https://picturesfrommyhome.blogspot.com/2019/08/about-cleaning-and-tidying.html

 F40.   For developing social eye, it helps if one has the possibility to live according to one's nature, since then one sees of others whether they have space to live in only so and so or live broadly, have a wide space. Living according to one's ages old nature helps also in that one sees the natural motivational factors and natural major phenomena of life, both in one'sown life and in that of others, and of them is life build also in these modern times. Also being interested in other professions too,learning skills and talents in professions that one likes, gives eye to such differencies. Likewise being interested in different ways of living. Not judging much but following justice when surely needed, being compassionate and like-minded shows things along their moptivation, their way of happening, their dynamics. Being interested in cvalues and good quality often solves problems,kind of lifts one above the problkematic basic level of social tangles.

F41.   27th of December 2020   These thoughts are largely just theory, even though backed up by my experienmce of life. So they give some advantages but are not the whole thing. Parctical life is more complicated, and so my life has not typically gone so well, especially not in social respects, even though I seem to have found quite many answers though. So infgluencies from mys kills by reading my texts is benefical as far as I understand, but influencies from my own life are largely not. I seem to have problems with some classifications which go always with a wrong group of people or too closely with some group that would be right in some other respects, and so my life goes just ashtray, maybe because I am not average.

F42.   The gnome book Tontun vuosi = Year of the gnome, that I read, has lots of large photograpfs of gnome figures/toys on a traditional farm, and only quite little text on each opening of the book. What I have written here, is my own skills, not from the book at all. I haven't had gnomes as a hobby, but the town I live in, Savonlinna is a countryside town and so life somewhat gnome like. But I myself am originally from the capital Helsinki, so I guess that I can somewhat build a bridge toward life like in a countryside town, from modern city life. But I think that this text is alöready over hundred times longer than my own opinion of what I ought to have written of the subject. I prefer reading of hobbies in hobby blogies of each type of hobby, and not as some sugary pile for too wide audience to be interested in such.

 F43.   28th of December 2020   It is said that one can learn new skills and talents from sexuality, but I guess that it isn't from fucking or from thinking of fucking, but instead from further away, from being fascinated by some skill or area of life and having a skilledf talented forefigure in it, yet keeping much of one's own fascination and one's own skills to support what one does and understand and how one lives, and so one is kind of lifted above the normal level to something fascinating and well working, to kind of a new area of life, new better life. One gets via social gesture language, social influencies, influencies from the otehr person's ways of doing: which areas of life are in use, in which ways, which things are paid attention to, and so one learns skills and talents.

 F44.   29th of December 2020   The nearing New Yaéar lift to minds the danger of nuclear wars. Such atmosphere seems to disappear via meditation and especially Buddhist good will: good will toward all living beings and compassion toward them. I guess that such values are understood all over the world to be peaceful and good willing. Maybe many feel the cultural differencies to be so big that they themselves do not fit into our picture of what all humans are like, and so all living beings is nearer to wishing well to the world.

F45.   It may also be that all intelligent beings are not humans, like Finns value the wisdom of little singing birds, and the ancient Mayas are saud to have been able to predict happenings for thousands of years in advance, which I guess could be best explained by the way of moving of snakes like a track of history, and so Mayas could have been either snakes or in close relationship with sankes, and that would have explained such wisdom.

F46.   There is a long tradition in Finland of sauna: a steam bath to get warm and to wash. It is a warm room ( a small wooden house) warmed by an oven in which pieces of wood are burn, and above that there are hot stones to which one can trow water that evaporates to the air to make it moist and hot. In sauna there are wooden benches at different heights, the highest of which is the hottest and the hot water vapour hits there hottest, and at the lowest bench it is easiest. One in in the sauna only a quite short time to get warm and then one goes out to cool to recover, wash and dress to clean clothes. The sauna is very comfoprtable and it makes one feel good. But it is tough for heat regulation, yet needed if one has gotten thoroughly too cold outdoors. In the summer time one can go swimming and warm again in sauna. It is traditional ti splash oneself with abunch of tree branches in sauna to get clean and feel good, but such damages trees so that the landscape does not recover, but young white trunked trees at a long distance are often ok for such, but one needs to have the opinion of someone skilled and responsible living there to have such rights. Here is a song about sauna. Families with young kids are in sauna together, but as older women and men go to sauna at separate times.   (18.2.2021   The video has only one picture, of this painting, and no video pictures.)

Video removed 29.6.2021

One does not fuck in sauna. That is too tough for heat regulation and too dirty for the place. One fucks in one's bed. There it is warm and nice to spend the whole night, and so a good place between clean sheats to make love too.

F47.   31th of December 2020, New Year's Eve    I read from the local newspaper about New Yaer's traditions in different countries, and mane seem to try to start with something good,thinking hat it would be a benefical effect to that direction for the whole year, but I think that such is a too tough task, one gets tired and so there is less of such in the coming year. Typically referring to some other time of the year, for example Christams or summer, does not bring forces to continue the same things, does not even rbing motivation to such, but a similar fascination in life brings such forces, brings such things to be parts of one's daily life.

"While I have lived in Savonlinna town, on New Year's Eve evening there have been almost solely low celebration like bangs all through the evening and midnight and not so much sharp or buzzling bangs and that has been more like a celebration and nice for feelings, but maybe that is partly a question of taste."   http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html

F48. 1st of January 2021   Usually those who have something as an enthusiastic hobby can reach higher than professionals in the same things. That is because they do not get tired and they can vary their ways of doing according to the situation and they have chosen the subject because they like it and so their attention is open to observe well evert´ything in it, yet they connect it with the wide world and lives at large too.

F49.   3rd of January 2021   "15. To one who has gotten very cold and been for a long time in cold, give heavy food, for example meat pie and meat sauce(?) as warm, and hot tea. Being in the cold consumes energy, so it is good to eat well that day even if you already have gotten warm again."   https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2015/12/instructions-on-how-to-get-warm.html

F50.   "453. Carrying responsibility is a character trait like a value. It means that one cares important things morally to well when one associates with such things. But it does not tell whether one associates with such things or not. And it does not mean any priviledges or rights, such is a different thing, and neither does it mean such a person having such a job."   https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2013/04/rationally-grounded-moral.html

F51. 5th of January 2021   If things around seem to deteriorate to criminal and kind of low level dark, the choices and the kind of wisdom generally valued as civiliced and wise is often an answer to such, so check if you have lately had such things to read, kind of have such a hobby, your course in the society to get things well again. 

F52.   It sometimes happens that when people make one kind of arrangements in a society, people tend to do the opposite of what was the idea in the arrangements. Like for example a nonmoral person having a so nasty idea of what moral is like, that she/he cannot get anyone to follow it, or at least gains lots of opposition toward such arrangements, which maybe was her/his own opinion to begin with. Instead one of course ought to make arrangements that are god to live with, and supporting such is largely the idea in moral. Generally things turning to the opposite of what was sincerely mneant often is a result of the ground for those things have not been understood, so the message has been on a different elevl of understanding than the receiver's understanding. So one ought to communicate to the real level of understanding of others, and to their real motivation,supporting so civiliced ways and civiliced wisdom. The message ought to reach also those parts in which the other one fails, makes mistakes, is not as skilled as otherwise, and so it ought to contant elementary explanations without giving up the good wise choices that civiliced wisdom teaches. And the real motivation & interest of others ought to ba taken along in civiliced ways, safeguarding against hoorible things, but often quite liberal-mindedly on the strting situation, i.e. being able to lift thesituation to well working civiliced, often via school knowledge and the like, but viua wisdom of life too.

F53.  6th of January 2021, the end day of Christmas time   "High skills is different from doing well in life

 I haven't done well in life, I do not have friends, family, work, money, safety, well working society or freedom to follow my own wisdom of life. But for me it has mostly been so that increased skills have made my life better, so I have across the years learned quite many skills and talents, and so I have been stuck to writing but without pay. I know that skills can be useful but they are not all that is needed, and neither is one's own good will all that is needed.

But I have a nice dog and more distant people are quite often good willing, which maybe partly is because I seek for civiliced distance, while poeple who come too close often turn to enemies or were cunning to beging with."     https://aboutmytexts.blogspot.com/

F54.   When it is raining, glimpses of light shining in the water drops bring a sense of beauty that makes the weather enjoyable, beautiful and atmospheric, kind of quietened mind and atmiospheric content to life.

F55.   I used to live on the north-western side of a three storeys high apartment house. There was at that side a parking lot, then a road and a row of trees by it's side and another parking lot and then an as high apartment house plus trees further away and a forest patch at the souther side of the houses, and just about evry evening when it was not too cloudy, one could from the second storey, maybe almost from the whole house, see sunset behind trees and it was quite nice so. There was another house that came nearer the road on the other side by the side of the parking lot, but it did not disturb the view so much.


F56.   "

12. November 2018   Vaapukka has after that happening specialized into helping other animals, sometimes humans too but dizzy humans do not so well understand animals, so mostly to helping animals. I do not quite know how it connects with them, but at least partly via birds and partly in some religious people's way or whatever is the usual way of dogs and other animals connecting with each other kind of spiritually or socially from a distance. He has seemed to spend in that task all the evenings, sometimes afternoons too for the last five years. During the last years it has also speciualized into curing illnesses and wounds with the help of my attempts at curing http://curingguesses.blogspot.com/2017/07/headers-translated.html . A moment ago it said that it had thus come to help as many times, done as many good deeds this way as it has white hairs in it's coat, which it as a puppy said to be one of it'sgoals but I never believed such possible, but it says thatit/he has been able to help a hundred ort even a thousand a day. So it seems that he has the right to have a white coat, even though in daily life he does not appear moral, but just caring.  

Vaapukka thought that I ought to take a picture when he celebrates and at the same time lien on the ground the way he does when he thinks of waking an animal from death:
 
 

My texts from this autumn about angels, devils and Christmas gnomes https://healthilymoral.blogspot.com/2019/11/two-texts-angels-and-devils.html .
  
* * *
Vaapukka died friday 7th of June 2019 when he at the moment had inflences from unwise British dogs,on a hot day to hyperventilation attack.
He stayed unmoved after it but looked somewhat as if listening, as if recovering, but was quite stiff in the morning, kind of toward relaxing too, so I estimated him dead even though there were not much bacteria in his coat. But in front of his mouth was a small pool of old blod.
 
30th June 2019   When a little bit under two weeks had passed from Vaapukka's death I composed a short tune to help others who mourn. I thought that it is good to take distance and to wish well and to have an idealistic, kind of polite as if in some spiritual context, picture of the pet which had died.
"     https://wakingfromdeath.blogspot.com/

The day vaapukka died was a quite hot summer day, and maybe a half an hour earlier on a walk with my dogs Vaapukka sniuffeda scrap cover of some fat woman's ice cream on the rgound and thought that it is time for him to continue onwards to such company, like he had long wished for to change to some fat nurse with a caring character like his. I had not known how to arrange it, so he arranged it himself, and so there was an impression of him continuing to life after death, and later on it often came to my mind that Vaapukka was many a female fat nurse's dog and cured handicapped humans. Once 9months later I also heard from outside my window a baby crying like as if it had been Vaapukka, and later that day an aeroplane flew overhead,as if it had beenIranian aeroplane carrying Vaapukka as a baby to Iran, a dog with miracle cure skills, maybe able to wake people from the death too.

Six days before Vaapukka died he had composed two melodies for curing patients in wheelchair back to walking, and he seemed to have lots of ideas and skills in it, thinking that he might comoose a tango about how roads toward getting cured fascinate, but that was a mustake, since the next friday he died. 


I wonder, my poodle Banjo composed last year was it in November a piece for living that time of the year more nicely, it was called Evening twilight and waiting for snow. He was not as skilled but we got attacked the next day and our lives have been ashtray amnd we have been attacked also after other things he has composed. Now we are in a damger of being without home, with no-obne to help us. And contacting the house administration already asd a thought makes me feel as if I were turning to a ghost, and that is what it this time started from, I guess some there wnating to kill me as such experiment.

7th of January 2021   Vaapukka had as a project to teacj curing to animals (and maybe humans) of all countries, and siad that he had succeeded in it on some mental connection of animals.

F57.   7th of January 2021   I saw somewhere a picture of world's first known musical isntrument. It was a hollow stick with holkes through somewhat like a flute but it had the style of dog sledge. I guess that the leashs of the sledge dogs had gone through it and wind had blown melodies and so one had learned how each type of stiuck sings or howls in the wind, and so learne dto make a flute. I wonder if originally people wanted to make artifacts so that they would sing, for example tools. And sometimes it is also nowadays possible. Like as a id we lived in a wooden house with outside wooden stairs to the door and there was in the mornings both shadow of trees and sunlight shining through to the stairs and so it was a nice place to sit and eat breakfast which was mainly warm tea, and listen to bird song and watch the garden, a pleasant moment, not so long but so suited to many people, kind of as if the house had lives singing, kind of weise way of building, even though the house was not in all respects such.

F58.   8th of January 2021   I have already written at lenght about my wisdom of life in the text about healthy natural ages old ways of living on all areas of life http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2015/11/healthy-ways-of-living.html , so that's what you ought to read.

"
1. Healthy natural ways of living are not a rigid rule or alike for everyone. Instead they are a group of things that are good to have in life and from which there usually is lots of good things coming if you catch the idea in them.
Feeling bad, dark thoughts, depressed, being ill, agitation, lack of energy, etc often are results of a lack of healthy ways of living. But how much you should do each thing in the healthy natural ages old ways of living, in that you need to try some amount and listen to what brings pleasantness and energy.
The healthy ways of living are a loose group of things and may depend on the climate."

Building dream level solutions

A quotation from a leter of mine:
"lots of room left for
positive imagination according to which one can years later build
something that becomes our future. Feeling, imagination, a structured
 picture, a technical scetch according to that and an engineer building
it: this way you make dreams real! It is a good way to do and to have
in the style the posters are written and pictured: the dream kind of
works as building instructions for making it real, so you get almost
 or even totally ideal solutions this way!""   https://feelingcomputers.blogspot.com

 F60. Oh, how is gnome like life possible socially, how is it possible to get along and to have room for one's own life, for one's own likings? I guess that the answer is the traditional Finnish rule "Live and let others live!". It is essential, so I copy it here:

"

World's best problem solving method (Important to learn all over the world)

 The ruleis something like: One is allowed to be selfish in ways positive for happy life but not to disturb the lives of others - except fairly to prevent them from disturbing others unfairly.

I do not know how all-European this traditional Finnish speaking Finnish (saying/)behaviour rule referred by the non-literal words "Live and let others Live!" but it is surely worth copying! It gives a maximal amount of freedom of everyone, completely according to their own likings, at the same time as it gives perfect moral for purely selfish individuals concerned mainly about their own life but who have a holistic rational view of the world and of the
society's workings.
The rule "Live and let other Live!" means that you can yourself live as freely as you allow others to live in the society - that means the others who follow the rule "Live and let others Live!". If you to some extend disturb people who follow the saying, you own room to affect things and to live in is shrunk on that respect, preventing the harm and making you think that you might want more room and so be motivated to living in harmony. That means that evil is not allowed to affect lives (of anybody else than the evil one oneself) but nice moral things are allowed to affect fully and supported in order to get better life for all! But one does not need to accept some influence because someone else says it is nice, instead there is the need to be moral and the freedom tofollow one's own likings.
It is a good rule. Maybe You have it already! Please learn to use it for happy life and a prosperous society, if it is not so widely known...

About the rule in all social relationships, please read http://yksinaisille.blogspot.fi/2012/03/build-perfect-relationship.html

Observe that this rule is roughly "Room for happy life!" and is akin to justice and caring the world to such that it is good to live in happily. It is not saying that one should not kill anybody. It means that if fair play and the happiness in the society or in the wide world so demands, you are supposed to prevent evil ones (and utterly stupid ones) from harming others unfairly, also if it means war, killing or the like, but of course one must see the situation as a whole, the good and bad sides of each tactic and choose with wisdom.

There is this same rule without any exception in all relationships, including mother-child-relationships, dating (Try for example in competitors in love, their kids and other responsibilities), friendship, hate, not caring attitude etc. Largely other rules are not needed, except lots of common sense, healthy spirit and a good understanding and at least some good will toward all.

An important application of this rule are the relationships between countries and between groups which may compete fiercely. It is also a good rule to build the society upon.

It often happens with this rule that the problems disappear as if they had vanished to the thin air.
Typically some woman (a wise one) or some nice man says "Go and enjoy yourself. Do not be bothered by them. You do not need to disturb them if you go to some other place or to some other people." and so the person in conflict does so and finds so room for him/her to live his/her own life without conflict with the others.

The goal is something like "We live our lives and let them live theirs." But the other side of the rule is how to get it to apply, how to force it upon people who do not follow it. And that is if they break against justice disturbing the lives of others unfairly, their own room to live in is shrunk similarly and they are prevented from harming others unfairly. But where they live ok, they can fairly keep their space to live in. Typically in this the rest of the society caring about that people would follow the rule, is important. Also some wisdom of life makes this work better than too little understanding about quality of life, social relationships and the workings of the society.

If this rule isn't familiar to you and you don't know how to take it into use or even if you want to use it or not, please try it out in your mind: figure out what it is like in each situation and how following it would affect things. It is a very useful rule, somaybe you like it too, it is quite easy when you have first learned it in each type of situation.

If you in some occasion don't feel like yur feelings coming along in letting others have so much room and preferably happiness too, you have propably not applied the rule enough to yourself: so be more selfcentered, think about what your own life need in a situation like this and see if you can arrange freedom and happiness for both yourself and for others, for yourself you need to take care of it and for others just leave room for them and they themselves with their friends arrange for themselves without feeling it being a burden of some kind.

This rule works also if there are lots of murders http://healthilymoral.blogspot.fi/2016/10/live-and-let-others-live-also-if-there.html

In care professions, like for example medicine, it is important to follow good enough understanding, good enough moral and be honest about what is a lie, a habit or an unsure supposion. But with wider consequencies taken fally into account this rule applies there too: the patients and others cared for should be allowed to decide fully about their need for care and about the decisions in their care: that is their life, their own influence to the world and those in care professions should not mess with it, giving excuses for crimes. It is especially important to let those live freely who are moral and so carry the burden of keeping the world in a good state, for example some parts of the society.

This rule works well for example in the negotiations between different groups. You do not need always say aloud that things are according to this rule. It is enough if your suggestions are such that when other groups check them, they find that those are ok for them, so they can easily agree to support them, and likewise for your own groups too. But on the long run it is good for people to learn the rule, so that their own suggestions are all right for others too.

Following this rule in decisions, courses taken, judgements etc makes police and justice system and government also easy to agree about, but you do not need to refer to this rule, but more likely explain things in terms of law, needs, objective thoughts, common sense, experience, fair play, carrying responsibility, freedom, etc and then when the other person checks whether it is ok for him/her, it is according to this rule and so easy to agree about, and kind of makes it easier to think of these kinds of things if one has good enough understanding, wisdom wisdom of life, healthy spirit, good will and responsibility about the coming generations etc.




Horse running in an arch, a model of free life according to feelings, a horse knit picture

Animals and somehumans too learn this rule easily by comparing people (and animals) to the trees in a park: each one has one's branches sovereign, lives freely according to one's emotions so, but does not mess with the branches of others, isn't allowed to do so. But one can offer available things that people like, like for example a song in the radio, in a radio station which specializes to that type of music so that people can choose according to their likings whether they listent o it or not.

E1.   Christmas gnomes are connected with Christmas which is right after the darkest days of the year, a kind of new beginning that is so early that reliugion is the first one to grasp it, bringing hope of a better future. The darkest time of the year is hard to bear for most, and so the lighter days in the beginning of January are a relief for most. The tough times before Christmas demand a different way of doing, kind of softening, taking time for free time and for the comfort of feelings and for warmth, learning winter time skills too, and such is seen as the task of Christmas gnome like life before Christmas.

E2.   "Find religion from your heart
Stopping to watch a nature scenery you feel emotional beauty of such fractureless way of living and a sense of respect for such health. That respect is like a prayer: you can quietly say in your mind "please, let things be so well in the world!" and lift your wish somewhere high in the air for respect. So you have made a choise of values: a prayer unified with your whole way of living, a prayer that you respect in practise with your own way of living in your daily life as far as you can choose yourself.

Come to think of it, the wonder os existing, of sensing, of doing practical things in the world, of having social encounters especially with animals, it is something beyond our schooled ways of thinking, we cannot build such, we are a living miracle, so finely structured that our schooled thoughts fail to grasp it at all and we can just feel the contact with life with its' multitude of shades of natural observations of what life is like, how we and the world function. Miracle.
...
Do not follow rigid religious guidelines, instead make a healthy version of them and follow that, that one you will find in your own heart if you use just your highest wisdom in thinking and feeling what is healthy and what is not."

E3.   Highly skilled means that such area of life goes easily, almost effortelssly. One achieves much and does things with good quality. And for it to make sense from the point of view of life, also the way of doing, motivation etc ought to be such that they offer healthy kind of good life. Quite often people interested in developing skills and talents have some such features already as young, but more typical it is when one has got years of practice, and so many of the elderly are very much such. For such people to find a place for themselves in the societya nd in the working life, it is good if others consider it positive that someone offers a lot, kind of as gifts, and so with the extremely skilled, religion and the Santa Claus is a kind of saviour for their social life and for their place in the society, which of course is very benefical for the society, lifts it's skills level aa lot.

E4.   The elderly have typically found good choices in life, such that gets life more easy going and more successfull, while some other questions they have just found out that it is better to mostly bypass them, those were not their speciality, not their type of life, maybe not inside their skills. So they are mostly content with quite home bound life in chores that they like and are skilled in with tens of years of experience. And so "a gnome" can be a way of referring to an elderly person.

E5. People who tend to disturb the lives of others, often think that those who behave in a way well fit into the society behave "too gnome like", while others tend to call it just wise, life with some wisdom of life. Church supports civiliced wisdom and ways of living peacefully in a society and such is also taught to kids, so that gnome like life may be characteristec of younger people too.

E6. Wisdom of life makes life easier and more rewarding, even though not always without some toughness too, since healthy spirit is important for good life. Music that one likes, for example in the radio, teaches wisdom of life and makes one more intelligent, and so it may bring a gnome likecharacteristic to life.

E7. If god created the world, the nature in it's original undisturbed form reflects god's wisdom of god's creation work. It is the ideal for human functioning too, and a contact with nature, like for example life with pets, may give us better life, more wisdom of life and make us wise more widely.

E8. The church also takes care of the ill, who often need somehow softer, warmer, more homebound life with a take-it-easy attitude and something comfortable to do which might be gnome like things, since nature too is healthy and practical chores make one feel that one does something.

E9.   15th of September 2020   High skill is usually based on getting something right in a finely tuned way, and so it often demands some peace or benefits from peace. Such peace gives room to the things themselves so that one can get them right in a good quality way. Then it also teaches some such things for other skills too: how to benefit from peaceful circumstancies, and so a skilled person can sometimes offer fine views to others too, in other skills than one's own expertice.

 E10.   There is in the human nature a naturaö healthy ages old way to live a healthy kind of life and healthy spirit is important in it. From natural things in life, kind of basic life but a healthy kind of version/side of it and with wisdom and wisdom of life, teaches one how to follow feelings so that one's attention gets wider and more beautiful the landscaope around and it is natural so to follow feelings in a positive way, like music teaches one to do. And so one can for a while live in a panorama of music, in a panorama of life, and grow so in wisdom and in skills for life. But it is not always happy, not always a thing to reach for, since there are many kinds of feelings, also to big things in life and those things are not all happy. On the other hand, it is  a way of learning wisdom from one's experiences of life, a way which issupported by basci skills and healthy kind of life generally, especially sports that one likes and civiliced wisdom, the possibilities the society gives for good life in the society.

E11.   20th of September 2020    Maybe a gnome too could learn this way:

"Easy quick school for animals, especially pets and birds

 Animals which associate closely with humans, especially pets, ofr example dogs, sometimes ask if there could be a school for animals too. I have written advices about learning common sense like objective thinking and about fitting into the society, so here is my version of a kind of school for animals:

1) Thinking: use a landscape like view that observes structures. Good practise for this is looking at familiar scenes and landscapes with trees and some life in them. Trees and nature make observation ability better and join the sense of sight topgether with the sense of atmospheres, which is also good for thinking. http://quickerlearning.blogspot.com

For teaching this to a dog that is interested in learning it, go outdoors to some peaceful enough place where there are trees but not overly amess. Do not strand face to face by your pet but instead side by sode so that it looks at the same landscape as you, and so you can look at it so that it sees it the same way and then you can walk to a bush, tree, street's side lawn etc like observed firstm, and that's it.

2) Fitting into the society: The advice "Live and let others live!" is good for this. Think of each person and each group sovereign as the trunk and branches of a tree in a park. It does not mess with the branches of other trees and those too leave it alone, to freely and happily live it's own life. Good will toward others is a good advice here. https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2012/10/live-and-let-others-live.html

 Another piece of advice is for all to work for better life in a better living environment, like work, hobbies, friends, caring for the environment, making the society good to live in. https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2013/04/rationally-grounded-moral.html

3) Wisdom of life and healthy ways of living you can partly learn from how tree branmches curve topward light and what is their atmosphere, the mood it seems to refer to and the kind of life, and partly from sport and healthy kind of life on all areas of life.

* * *

There are also some other things that have often come to my mind when thinking of a school for animals, especially for pets and birds, maybe for mice too.

4) About teaching an animal to read there is a video about reading Finnish language at https://villakoirabanjo.blogspot.com/2020/01/opeta-elaimesi-lukemaan-nain.html , but for it one must first understand spoken language, which often goes by associating with humans and paying attention to the situations and tones of voice, and later by remembering also the atmospheres of the spoken language. Finnish language is written like it is pronouced, but there are some differencies between literature's language and the words of spoken language.

5) The square looks of houses etc are a consequence of it being so easy to place two or more parts next to each other tightly and so that one can choose from nay options, what to place so. So one can build shelter from weathers and from dangers and use materials economically. Such houses also offer fiar chances for different types i´of individuals and a possibility for privacy. The square looks of houses are not good for intelligence and quality of life. For them it is good to look at trees outside the window. If life indoors feels tough, do not attach yourself to build things but instead only to the nature outside the window and to outdoors at large.


"


E12.   21th of September 2020   One gets influencies from what one does to the following things that one does, and so wise choices create more wise life and rotten or low-level choices make the following things quite impossible if they are not low-level too. Engineering is such: not so good quality thinking, likewise idiotic opinions and keeping company to or discussing with people who value people interested in engineering or the like, since such makes all views kind of mechanical, not so wise, and so one cannot understand the natural language of insight etc, of natural ways of doing and wise landscape like views that observe also feelings and atmospheres. Sports, nature, arts, religion, holiday with wise things of interest, music and following feelings & civiliced wisdom, also company of the elderly and wise books to read, help to correct the skill level back to wise and skilled. Here it matters a lot that one could keep things so well understood that sports are a part of life, things not too cumbersome and vague, and so one's quality of life would be better, one much happier and things done with a healthy spirit.

 

E13. 22th of September 2020   Talk to your pet profoundly about life and wisdom of life. It can understand a lot and so you build a good relationship to it.

E14. 28th of September 2020   If things are rotten in your enviroenment, it is often a question of you not fitting that place or activity, especially not fitting to the people there, maybe their skill level, values, characyer etc. Then things getting well is often a question of you choosing things very much according to your dreams, even extremely much, and using very good quality in them like is fitted for dreams, and helping others somewhat on the way, since they are not always perfect, but doing it so that things do not get rotten, i.e. use healthy spirit and civiliced wisdom. (If it stillis problematic, pay attention to having a different social group because of dfífferent profession or the like, and not sharing everything if the others are not likely to support. Often problems arise when you are too close socially instead of just civiliced distance with civiliced wisdom helping. You also ought to choose your own dreams and not from what others have chosen.)

E15. 29th of September 2020   Oh, do some want to know how to live a gnome like life in order tyo know how to live in a way fitted into the society? But those two are not the same. Gnomes are for the time before Christmas when it is very dark, it is dark when people go to work or school in the morning, and except the youngest kids, it is dark when they get to go home in the afternoon, and such life is hard because it feels as if there were no free time. So one needs a softening and the gnome soffer such. One also needs ghealthy action and the gnomes offer such too. But when it is not so dark mostly only the ill or somehow burdened need such softening. The good way to live in a way fitted into a society is to be healthily sporty and follow healthy natural ages odl ways of living plus civiliced wisdom. So it isn't gnome like in the same sense but it may of course include life accoring to feelings and a good atmospohere.

E16. 30th of September 2020   Boys and men being malicious toward girls and women is at least partly a question of thinking that boys and men are forced to get themselves killed in a war while women and girls not. But that is not quite so, since the benefit for a country of men going to war is to defend the country, to defend the good sides of it's way of life, circumstancies, values, for of government, skill level etc. And that in practice means that they have to have a some kind of army that is alive. A man getting killed in the war is no longer useful to one's country, so ´getting killed is not at all the idea of having an army. There are several ways of avoiding people getting killed. One is to avoid war but not at all costs. Another is to have so much skills that one does not automatically get killed, and here one must remember that you must invest on the skills of your own country instead of sticking to the skills levels of other countries, since those have different strenghts to help them. And you can fiught milder, not at all costs but instead in wise ways that respoect values and that safeguard against betrayals, traps, lies etc. So an army ought not be a question of getting killed, there is just the danger of dying and that is why one should count on skills and on the strenghts learned from civilian life, and not do stupid deeds. When kids are young, they rae typically asked if they would like to go to the military service when they are young adults, and typically boys always answer that they want to go to the army while girls say that they do not want since it is planned just for boys, but maybe they too want to keep such option available. So as older they are just asked, do you still want to go to the military service, have ýou so decided? It is important to have skills for life, but in a society that means also that those with skills have to take care of such things for the whole country, like is wise. But military matters interest just about all, so all have some kind of opinions and tactis an´bout them, but the opinions differ and so differ the tactics too, and so men and women choose different roads in life even though they all need to take care of the military things too, but being commanded by young boys isn't the way for a country to defend well.

E17.   4th of October 2020   Oh, one reasons for me writing about Christmas gnomes is that I have now for some seven years lived in an apartment number 24, and 24th of December is Christmas Eve when Finns celebrate Christmas among other things by giving presents.

E18.   5th of October 2020   I have now lived 11 years in Savonlinna, which is a countryside town in Savo in eastern Finland, and is famous for it's summer time opera festival in a medieval castle in the center of the town, and for the vast lake and forest district Saimaa around which has lots of summer cottages. So it is kind of practical life with arts and nature and some religion too. As I moved to Savonlinna, I had had a way of life and wisdom of life that brought happy life in such things, but as I have lived in Savonlinna, my life has been mostly centered in writing and I haven't been so happy. But today I tried to find that perspective of happy life, even though I have lately been stuck and stupid, but I gave it a try anyway and oproduced these two pieces:

F, D, very quick E, long A

D, very quick E, F, quick D, long A

But I do not know if it suits other places, even though it might,since Savonlinna is a tourist town. But anyway it is only about searching for that perspective of happiness, not about happiness itself.

E19. 9th of November 2020   "Saturday, March 24, 2012   A theoretical view of how fact language should be like music

Here is my view on how to develop one's way of writing toward musical
language that is at the same time best kind of informative fact
language. Maybe it could offer a dream to develop towards for many who
are interested in writing?
Fact lanaguage and thoughts describe the structures of the world,
which we observe via our experience and for which feelings give
emphazis according to their importancies and their areas of influence.
Feelings touch the level of our life in the living, giving motivation
for action and bringing content to life. From the point of view of
feelings the most impressive are the major features about what life is
like to live and what the world is like from the point of view of
living.
Objectivity comes via faithfully describing perceptions and via
arranging them to a seen structured landscape, to which atmosphere
impressions give a philosophical view which tells what the phenomena
in the landscape mean to life. Perceptions become surer via
sensitively, faithfully to the level of sensory impressions and
sensations describing all the sides of one's perceptions.
Well working ways of doing and well working routes flow easily: they
have the best enthralling easy-going style.
This way best fact language's, and even fiction's, most successful
part are like music - some kind of experienced strongly touching
original basic form of music to which the ability of modern music to
touch the hearer still relies on."

24th of October 2020   

   ( (   E20.   School tends to squeeze pupils to too little space, but last spring tere was an epidemy 

(coronavirus is said to kill people by slime in the breathing tunnel, but such happens when one has too cool clothes, so one might try a very warm thick woolen blanket or similar very warm bird feather filkled or the like winter blanket, the whole person, also hands, under the bölanket, but head outside it, and no holes that would let cool air in)

  and so kids and teenagers had school via computers from home and so they could study more in their ownb rythms and more in their own ways, and so this autumn there maybe was more room for stuidying according to one's own riuthms and ways and so when schools started in August this yearf ior the first time afer I started school there did not come a feeling of pupils being overly squeezed.   ) )  

  ( (    E21.   Feelings elp to answer needs and such is benefical for full functuioning, but what needs does food serve? If one for example eats fruits or fresh vegetables, the right amount is indicated by what tastes good and leaves one refreshed and with energy. It is similarly wuith other foods: general guidelines, see A64., and the excat foods and excat amounts according to what feels good and keaves one's body and mood well as long as the food affects. If one needs overly much food, one has typically neglected some part of healthy natural ages old weays of living, for example good moral that makes more room for life for oneself and others, for the wide world, and so one tries to compensate such lack by eating more. If one has some problem, tht is often like work to do: you need energy andf skills for that, so eat good food and have arts and civiliced wisdom and the like as interests right after eating, and so you grow in capacity and can handle things for which you do not have enough  skills or not a calm(?) enoiugh character.   ) )   

  E22.   27th of November 2020   My paradise theory http://2013paradise.blogspot.com

   ( (   E23.   31th of October 2020   Come to think of it, quite many, even very many people spend lot of their own choices into making life softer or easier instead of to things they love and that give them good life in a healthy way. One reason is that many have not noticed the need of others to soften to be so high like with serious disease, so that one is kind of round and food centered, instead of sporty and full of energy and good will. And so they try top get rid of that kind of round softening feature overwhelming them, and kind of cut it away from others too, and so cause the troubles of others. I have the impression that partly because of this many people do not have much room for their real selves, for what they really want in life. But that does not need to be so. Civiliced wisdom offers wisdom of life with which to handle mnany things in life and do well in life. But often people are not so in tune with it, but do somethings ocial instead. But if one would think of oneself and of the world, of what the world is like to live in, one could aim at the good of the world and that is in tune with civiliced wisdom, and so if one unifies that with one's wish for good life, one maybe could noc´tice where good life is needed and where it overrules some rigid guideluines that are not wise enough, and so one could have good life and be in tune with working life and the organiced society, so that one would gain space and be allowed a lot, and so have a good life and be a kind of model for others who wish the same.   ) )    

E24. 17th of November 2020   If there is a conflict of groups, one can caml it down by using a civiliced perspective via which it is easy to live, so that it is easy, kind of comffortable and natural, to choose in one's daily life, and use in it such a civiliced perspective that is healthy in spirit as the version that people and groups use, so that it works well and is a relief and pleasant and gets things well for all both in the short and in the long run. Civiliced values are a typical well working example of such.

E25. 20th of November 2020   If one thinks of what one wants and needs in life and how is it possible in one's situation of life, it does not carry as far as thinking at a general level, much like education brings general civiliced view of healthy ways of living and civiliced values, of what is good to have in life - kind of not stuck to the situation but instead picking always just the things that carry life well also in the long run, in all kinds of situations, just the essential things in that which means basic things in life like human nature teaches and wisdom about a good society to live in. So that one always has the beneficala ffect and grows in wisdom via that and ib happiness, but is free to use all kinds of situations like is best.

E26. When one is young, when one copies skills etc from others, one often does not know exactly what is the idea of the person in them, and what works out how, and so one uses a guess in the sphere of healthy ways of living and civiliced wisdom of one's own, as the ultimate truth about how the things ought to be, and so one copies that instead of detailedly from the other person, and so one gains the benefit of the civiliced wisdom and of healthy spirit and one's own personal view. So in a sense it isn't so much like just copying from the other. But as one gains more experience of life, one often learns to copy detailedly and so the quality of what one so learns gets lower. Also some tyr to learn to act and so they try to teach people to copy detailedly, which then does not suit anyone and brings conflicts and forced situations. So the right way to copy is like the young person who aims at the best answer instead of detailed copying.

E27. 21th of November 2020   Gnomes are not how I would describe the goal in ways of living and doing, sinbce gnomes emphasize softness and comfortability, which often leads to not having enough energy, not enough spirit, not enough courage and defences, not well along and maybe to o lazy and getting ill becauise of too much lazying. Instead one should aim at being activem sporty, courageous, spirited, well along in the idea of things, why they are done and why just so and how the society works and why just so and why are values valuable. So would life go easy, be happy and comfortable via more active life, more clear headed, more along with the idea in things and having defences ok.

E28. 23th of November 2020   If one aims at healthy ways of living with a sports hobby, one ought not take little singing birds as one's forefigure in them, maybe not other animals either, since singing birds mostly sit leisurely on a branch and are social, in the winter time they also keep themselves warm with food, so that they do not have so healthy ways of living as what would bring a good feeling and health for humans. Neither are they so sporty, but instead more home bound.

E29. 25th of November 2020   Watching sports of the tropics does not make me feel well and I get the feeling that the people in the pictures do not feel well either. Things natural in human nature like sports, beauty of nature, using the senses, etc ought to make one feel happy, fulfilled, easy in the heart, relaxed and relieved. I wonder if people in the tropics do not come home from work orstudies, eat a little, change clothes and go somewhere to run or play, to have a relieving sports hobby which offers fullfilling lifeso as to counteract the burdens of work or studies. One ought to have a natural inclination for moving. Maybe that demands cool, I do not know, but one ought to follow one's momentary feelings and common sense. I learned such moving when as a child I was somewhere walking with my mom and she said, let's run hurriedly there, a short distance, it was eager and a feeling of sports, yet short and not planned for. There is also a song about moving according a curly wind in a cool road with trees around. (1.12.2020   Obs. This video is not mine. It is from the video site www.youtube.com ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9uyAwNXw0U

"Look at the nature, examine the direcrion of the wind, it is from the north (cold), press your lips determinedly, turn your backj to the wind... the nature does not give any victories ( it is always giving rise to best quality and wisdom of life)"

E30. There is a Finnish saying that one does things "on the wing of others" which means that mainly the others are doing that but one went along with them and so got a chance to that for oneself too, so that one is in a sense in their shelter in getting possibility for such thing. Generally if one chooses oneself everything, that is somehow very basic, not complex, always only the same things, and so it is not as wise view as one would think. But if one instead goes along with others and they do something they like or need, one starts to wonder what one oneself would like to do, and so one refers to civiliced wisdom saying that all can freely choose their profession, a profession that they like, and where thye live, in what kind of culture and olace, what are their good sides, and so on, and so one is with a wide ladncape of professions with their good sides, different people, places and cultures all with their own good sides, and so one is cultivating much more good things if one does things "on the wing of others" and so there are also more possibilities open for oneself in the world, and maybe the environment works out better so too.

E31.   26th of November 2020   Sometimes the world seems to be full of evil and social life of attacking people, but often the situation isn't necessarily so bad. Instead many attacking kind want to be strong and survive well in life, maybe do well in something. But they often do not notice how all human such goals are, how many different such tactics there are and different skill levels with different looks, diffreren t values, different situations of life,different ages and experiences, different influancies from other cultures which all have different views on military circumstancies and of soldier like virtues. It is typical that when people do not like someone, they often try to get rid of such person and so they are evil toward him or her but at the same time they like others and are often wonderful civiliced wise persons toward them. Sp getting enough room to live in, not going too close to others if one does not sincerely like thme and want much such influencies to one's life, often cures such problems away. It is also typical that if someone is not liked, the others have somehow misestimated his/her style, for example considered soft looks because of illness or need to change profession to be the person's views on military tactics. So often doing motivatedly something quite common but valued like for example work or free time, brings looks that are easier to understand and so there is a clear place for such a person in the environement and so one gets along easier. Also so one is more concentrated on doing things on one's own and not in vaguely contacting others.

E32. 27th of November 2020   Maybe one could use this melody of mine to support world peace

The first part of the melody is of thinking of oneself, the other of thinking of the person one talks with and the third of thinking of someone further away, each supporting the good of the world in their own ways, a good future for the younger generations, a good world to live in, support them in a way that is reflected in how one lives one's life.

E33. Gnome like characteristics in a way of life are especially much allowed and hoped for, since a gnome has a very positive view on working life, is eager to work and satisfied with one's work, and lives in a way well fitted into the society, both to the modern working life and to having healthy ways of living, a love of the nature and other good sides of traditional ways of living which give endurancy, health and happiness and fracturelessness which increases wisdom and wusdom of life. So gnome like characteristics are not too tale like and ought not be dropped away in the modern world. Each person has one's own likings and a gnome has learned how to find room for them in peace with the rest of the world. A gnome often arranges much of what one needs or wants by oneself and so is not so much a burden to others. A gnome supports the civiliced society, and so is a valuable individual to the modern society.

E34. Is gnome like life what you start to do, if you as younger had studies and work oriented life, but then stopped that and moved to another kind of place with more fractureless culture or somehow more gnome like, and then you did not have priofessional skills for that but wanted yto learn, so you started something in that direction and found chores for yourself and across time many useful things to do and content to life but not exactly a job?

E35.   28th of Navember 2020   In the deeds of the elderly, in the style of wild animals and sometrimes pets, and in the forms of traditional art, there are magnifient fractureless whole and things deeply according to the human nature, how things ought to be in life. Such skills are partly a consequence of having good basic skills like education aims at and civiliced wisdom, and then in addition one does things and learns along one's own interest but seen in the light of civiliced wisdom, making them more profound and more worth while. And that whole thing gets energy and deeper thoughts. deeper feelings from following ages old fractureless healthy natural ways of living on all areas of life, of deeds being wiorthwhile in that sense, worth doing like our heart says and what wusdom says about what is wase and good way of doing things. And those skills get support from wandering in the nature and looking at trees, so that one compares a thought with a tree branch or so, it's curvature it's healthy spirit, it's atmosphere, and takjes those as a guide toward better quality and wisdom of life. And so piece by piece one builds a better world, better life in a better wiser living environemnt, and does that in a way which is art like to remember, to copy and learn from, not a burden but instead a natural pleasure, wisdom like the ages old ways of living, their parts.

E36. 29th of November 2020   There is something alike in Gnomes and this kind of ghosts, but there is a clear difference too: gnomes are clearly alive and positive in atmosphere and safe, while ghosts are thought to have died a long time ago and may be mixed with negative characteristics connected with ghosts and the spirits of the dead and with dangers of dying. 

"Spirits of the dead, like wind or a white fabric, is different from ghosts, like an old times' human figure that has colours but which one can maybe part of the time partially see through. A ghost has liked to live in some place, still just lives there, even though all have not noticed him/her, but maybe he/she is an elderly person who just lives quietly and likes handiworks, maybe wants to keep up handiworks tradition and that tpogether with older age makes the clothes look unusual. If the world is of spirit, he/she is maybe sometimes with you in the same world, when you somehow like to live in the same kind of miljo as her/she, and at other times,when you live a different kind of life at different times of the day or night, he/she is maybe not there seen at all in your spheres of life."

"I do not know how one could see ghosts, but I guess that it is via liking some place, being fascinated by it, a place that has a long history, that has been liked and valued."

https://wakingfromdeath.blogspot.com/2020/11/about-spirits-of-dead-and-ghosts.html

 E37. My poodle remarked to the subject of ghosts that foreigners often have a peculiar unwise view to the dead. On a walk in a forest patch with already snow too there was the atmosphere of maybe spirits of the dead, like insects on the branches of undergrowth having died, but it was in harmony with the nature and humans and animals there, maybe the insects were just stiff and followed the wanderers with their eyes, and were there to spend the winter so and wake up in the spring to birdsong, sun and waking nature. While foreigners tend to stick to subjects like ghosts and spirits of the dead as if they were looking to a drawer to see what is there, as if ghosts etc had always existed and there were no danger in them. But my poodle said and I agree that things have not stayed the same. Ghosts in the past times were a different thing. The times have changed and the ways of living  and values and the amount of fracturelessness and harmony, and so ghosts too must be a differewnt thing, and different even for each individual, since they have different values, skills and nature.And so one must build by oneself the fracturelessness to one's environment, in questions of life after death too. One way to associate with ghosts etc is to wish good for them and for others around too, and to leave them in peace, in a good life as far as one can influence.

E38.   "97. Praying and knitting
 When I started the first pair of mittens, I did not have any previous successes in knitting, and my habits were full of advices from others and influencies from the ways of kntting of characters completely different from my own, not at all nice ways to knit. So maybe up to the halfway of the first mitten I prayed several times that I would find peace to find my own way of knitting, my own handiwork skills and not to collapse under the mountains of influencies from others. And so I think that that helped a lot in that I learned to like knitting."   https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2017/10/knitting-tips.html

But my view on how to get peaceful life is instead to wish well and support civiliced views.

E39. 30th of November 2020   In following the presidental elections of USA I did not understand much. But is it so that one party wants things according to education, while the other says that people do not in practice make choices so and that needs to be taken into account which then causes more like a mess. In the University of Helsinki, Finland, where I studied as a young adult (I studied theoretical physics and math but did not like them at all, it just made no sense; but I studied also some theoretical philosophy and liked it, still value it somewhat), it was thought that educatyion needs as it's support a wider view of the world, often theoretical in the light of wisdom of life and with the ages old healthy natural ways of living giving a picture of humans via which one can understand a lot and offer happy life in practice, well working solutions too. Via wisdom of life one finds answers that are good for others to use, and so the solutions work out better, and the biological picture of humans is at so theoretically wide level that it can build a bridge between different types of humans and even animals, so that one does not create a mess but instead easy naturally working solutions. 

E40. 1st of December 2020   Civiliced wisdom like education teaches has typically truths that some understand and some others do not fully understand. Since one tends to drown in the skill level and viewpoint of the person who talks, oneought to start by the ones with a good understanding explaining things and viewpoint, if one wants to clarify the elementary grounds for the wise choices, and not the more stupid and irresponsible explaining their viewpoint.

E41. 2nd of December 2020   Wandering in the unbtouched environemnt often spoils it and would be better left undone. But on the other hand untouched snow for example seems to invite to wandering in such a beautiful refreshing harmonical way. Could it be that such is often allowed if one is enough in tune with the environment, it's values, ways of doing etc, but that inviting others to it is not allowed. While wandering there one ought not in one's mind imagine telling about it to one's friends or kids etc, since that is different life, more unwise than the nature and so psoils the harmony already as a thought, and since if they would come, that would be as if dragged, and out of tune with the real spirit of the values of the place. But if others too have found it in their soul the fasc´cination for such a place, wihtout being talked about it, they too could wander there in harmony.

E42.   3rd of December 2020   I looked at the beginning of the book Joulu joutui, Christmas time came. It seemed old fashioned good quality book. It had in the cover pictures of a Christmas gnome that brought to my mind post office, it is said that Santa Claus has a huge post office and nothing much else. Could it be that in the old times Christmas was connected with sending and receiving postcards and Christmas packets, so that people maybe did not visit relatives but instead send them well thought of letter and pictures, much like post and not so much like revealing sio much about themselves, but maybe something, for example some dream and many Christmas like things. Also the book brought to my mind that had they in the old times had more Christmas like everyday life that time of the year, for example feeding birds, making home nice, Children playing, music in the radio or singing at home, sports outdoors, animals, nature, treasured books, glimpses of dreams, etc

The book said that Christmas is at the same time young and ages old. It seemed to find a way of adapting new things to be parts of the Christmas fun, it's pleasure, yet keeping tradition's good sides, it's valued things too. I feel that this Chritsmas gnome skills text of mine would need such adapting, but I do not know how, since mostly I have compared it to Christmas tales and to advices in hobby skills. Yet it is from the time of computers, when the speed of e-communication is so quick that it alters the Christmas traditions.

The book said that the present day Christmasses are only a little bit over hundred years old and came first to bigger houses and priests' homes and only later to all and still later to town center Christmas street lights & shops. Often such as celebrations are a way to lift the quality of life where it otherwise would be too low, like with food for example. And so the traditional ways of living which were happy as far as I know, did not need it so much, but people who helped the ill and miserable, like priests needed such, and also those with much less wisdom of life like those who valued houses instead of the nature and wisdom of life. And a town without much nature is also not so good for wisdom of life, while decoration lights help to remind that there are positive things to build one's life upon and one can buy many useful nice things for exampole in Christmas time, and the ordinary example ofskis offers good life, health, sports, outdoors healthy life, nature, possibility to wander on one's own, and a good example of things that moist like at all ages, and need too.

My impression is that it is the same with s´Santa Claus Lands of different countries: people who have been much ill some turn to Santa Claus when they are miserable and exhausted, and the fact that Santa Clauses are realk persons makes such burden colour the Christmases too, brings vagueness to thme and also an ability to let go, to just sleep and dream and aim for a bettrer life, find some good will too and thankfulness for the nature and life around, for one's possibility to take part in them like is pleasant.

E43. "Often near by people forcing wrong kind of things or things which have wrong kind of spirit to one's picture of the body or tyo one's life, seems to cause cancer, for example claiming nasty things to be good for the other. While free life with healthy spirit, like civiliced wisdom seeks to offer, like seeking towards one's dream job, healthy wyas of living and music, seems to cure cancer away and at leastd oes not cause cancer at all."   http://curingguesses.blogspot.com

E44. In this neighbourhood in eastern Finland I live in there is a woman of whom I, and maybe many others, did not first know if she was wanting to move to live in the tundra somewhere, or if she was originally from the tundra and wanted to learn to live somewhere else. But I guess that is one's aura, that means atmosphere, social style, ways of doing in what comes to their spirit and values, likings, values, etc, if those are like the people in the tundra, then she wants to move to live in the tundra. But if her aura is something very different from the tundra, she does not want to live in the tundra but instead where the life is like her aura, but if she is originally from the tundra, she may have habits and views and skills of the people in the tundra and she ought to learn new skills which would suit her own inclination, her own values and likings. (So, an aura is different from the general shape or impression of the person, or an exact picture of what she/he does, since those are most likely what she/he has been raised to, or what he/she has lately done. Instead an aura in this sense means what influencies the person seeks and has as a long time much liked hobby, what are her dreams, what kinds of things she/he likes and what she/he anchors herself/himself to because that is her/his dream. Like for example music or money or sex.)

E45.  4th of December 2020   Last month there was lots of Swedish influence in Finland and I learned that the Swedish are much more stupid than the Finns since the Swedish neglect looking very much or look from their memory instead of all the time forming a good picture of the environment, and so their ability to pictoral objective thinking is much lower than Finns'. They are also interested in single benefits and harms instead of, like Finnish speaking Finns, looking at the wide picture and wishing well to the society and the world and that with healthy spirit, wisdom of life and an understanding of how societies work. But an interest in farming for example emphasizes the sense of sight and so cures thinking ability to a large extend. https://pikakoulu.blogspot.com/2013/07/vaarinkasityksia-ajattelukyvysta.html

 E46. "(For Thanksgiving long walk in the cool creates a quietened mind that
apprexiates the rough beauty"

 E47.   5th of December 2020   "In a summer time's rainy day wear long trousers or the like. Then you can wear a coat and go for a walk to see and listent o the rain and the nature somewhere where there are trees or bushes: to listen to the rain drops on leaves, to look at the beauty of the rainy weather's nature and to smell the greenery on rain or just after a rain. When you return home, put wet shoes to dry well ja wear dry woolen socks, eat pie or something of the kind and maybe drink a cup of tea." http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html

E48.   "

READ this chapter, it is the ground for staying warm in the autumn: 

When in the late summer waters in the lakes get cooler because of the rains and the weather is in the late summer and in the beginning of autumn somewhat cooler but such that is good to spend time outdoors, then if you for example on the way tip your feet to the water in the lake shore or walk in teh terrain among the grasses which have partly been burn and dried by the heat of the hot summer days, you are then at the same time both fierce and warm enough, you feel the power of the summer time's nature, it's wisdom, you watch life from the point of view of a wild animal, from a point of view that gets superbly well along with the seasons, life's toughness, it's warmth, the wisdom of an almost full lifetime, summer's emotionality and the challenges that the nearing autumn time brings to wisdom, to how to be strong, weather proof, able to make preparations, oneself warm and wise, with wisdom of life, feeling, with foresight, one who finds balance between energy reserves and the demands of the weather, an indian of the late summer, a few steps in the bushes of the shoreline, on the shore stones, and when the weather gets cooler or the feet get wet soon fleeing indoors, to eat pie, woolen socks warming one's feet, watching out of the window, planning adventures, looking for nice things to do."

E49.   "
Years ago I learned to like wandering on city streets in April, when I used to read poems in the spring time, but I do not remember which poems fitted just April. Now all the snow has not yet melted but I guess that for example old Chinese poems:
A quotation from Pertti Nieminen's Finnish translation collection "Veden hohde, vuorten värit, Kiinan runoutta" (Water's shine, the colours of the mountains, Chinese poetry)
A poem of Chiang K'uei
"A summer day on Ling-Yin mountain

The wind blows to the pine branches,
it longs me to join it under the pines.
From via the northern mountains comes clouds;
I need to all the time turn my head
             and look at them.

Clouds arise all day and night,
the rain of the mountains keeps clothes wet.
How long do I need to still sit
            behind the bamboo window
and mumble new songs about the rain falling?"
(My translation)

 Indoors in April especially green plants make it nicer, and maybe also natural materials, things like traditional handicrafts, like a basket, and a nice blanket or the like soft warm with nice atmosphere and still needed. An instrument / music too."
