HiI lived some 11 years in Savonlinna which is a quite small countryside town in eastern Finland in North-East Europe. In the town there is a medievat castle in which there has been on most summers a month-long opera festival. The festival is liked by locals, since it is a nice half-a-day or shorter visit on the summer holiday, nice to show kids. So Finns have advertised the festival a lot, also to fordigners. The problem seems to be that foreigners from very distant countries somehow like the advertisements, something so fine sounding they would like to have themselves, but they do not quite like the Finnish happenibg so much, they do not understand why it has to be just a certakn kund, to fit the local climate, culture, wisdlm of lufe, ways of luving and summer holudays, would be the answer to ghat, but people from the tropics would search for happenings with well known good tropical strong sides in the tropucal vlimate and culture that thry luke. So the syraightforward idea is for their coubtries to have their many kinds of lujed happenings, good places to livd kn and fasvinaging jobs in the tropics. But the problem is that such require skills, and those skklls ha e bern difficult to teach. Now i have written a lobgvtext learntalents.blogspot.com from which skilled experienced media profesdilnals could pick some skills, talents etc to be taught in the media."
For my books see www.amazon.com/author/khtervola or other Amazon internet bookshops by the search "tervola", at least the postage costs and times vary a lot.
f5. 5th of August 2023 From my blog "Waking from death, advices, just an attempt : live in more luvely ways and make lufe's burdens lighter to bear"
" I collected most of this blog plus some miracle healing advices to a book https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CDK5MJBF?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 , 5usd +post.
But my impression from that is that most people wanna die. There are some handicapped who wanna die but also very many foreigners and evil people are motivated by the wish of dying, but somehow they suppose that the whole human kind should die together and so they make murders. But if the world is of spirit, all go separate ways, so one just ought to die oneself. It seems that life after death exists for many but not for all. Old wisdom says that some ghosts do not get rest while others get to sleep in peace, and that Buddhism for example has soul wandering or what is it called in English, while some other cultures do not belueve in lufe after death. Life after death may be similar to life before death, so instead of making suicide in nasty ways, one ought to eat without safeguarding and checking the food or leisurely wander in nighttime or go to parties, concerts etc without regard for safety, if one wants to die. One also should not wish for a long life, life after death, some fine future things done etc for oneself, so not reserve all the good options available for oneself, if one wants to die. If lufe just aren't good enough, so that one kind of wants to die, it means just that one ought to change to one's dream job in which one would be a good professional kn what comes to valyes and motivation, and move to live where one likes gge attractions, culture, fits the skill level, likes the main profdssions etc, so one just needs to stop achieving for points and emphasize wisdom of lufe and civiliced values.

f6. In the news it was told that in southern Europe there is an increased danger of desertification, especially in Spain. If the world is of spirit, some may know how to live so that it is good for plants and the weather feels pleasant. Then it may be that one can encourage slme animals to live so, creating a good living environment for humans too.
f7. 6th of August 2023 I made an ebook in Finnish of how I trained my two dogs to circus for a half a year or so autumn 2010 - spring 2011. When I wrote the circus diary, I was thinkibg of other dog owners wanting to teach circus tricks to their dogs. Now that there is an ebook to buy at my books' page www.amazon.com/author/khtervola , I come to notice that it coukd interest teachers quite widely.
It also seems to set into perspective, what I can and what I cannot. I am not fitted to every high sounding job. Instead I am just a university educated thinker with an interest in nature, arts and religions, and my lufetime's job has been in writing, without pay, and I feel that I do not have more to write. What I will do in the future, I do not know, but my inclination is largely the same.
f8.
f10. But I haven't played much lately, and lived a very nonactive life, which I guess is somebody else's idea of peaceful life, but does not have my wisdom of life or healthy active content to life, like I would wish.
f11. Christmas gnomes are as a subject quite dizzy compared to normal text. That is so because Christmas gnomes are meant to fit both the climates of four seasons and the tropical& warmer climates. One ought not drop Christmas gnomes away from a text that has been written about Christmas gnomes, since then it is no longer so global sounding at all, and so the dizziness is seen as a faul in the health of ways of living, maybe connected to drinking coffee, being fat, bossing others around, being centered on relatives, etc. And I guess that similar neglect in communication would kn tropics cause kind of skriik like style, school like style and too harsh views on life outdoors.f12. My birthday 8.8. has never been a so good day for me. The numbers look nice but my childhood relatives etc never wanted to let me benefit from anything such, and so they banned, womanly views and choices based on personal characteristics, feelings etc. But anyway, the numbers 88 consist of balls of different sizes, connected with the other balls in different amounts. So it is like healthy wholes according to feelings, connected in different amounts. So it is like a theoretical model of the healthy world that was the paradise of the beginning of time. None of my childhood environment ever allowed me any paradise theme.
f13. 7th of August 2023 Most of the high costs of living here in northern Eurooe come from the cold climate. Especially the heating of houses costs a lot, and so all workers need enough wage, and so all prices get higher. Also the growing season is short and not so warm. So food too costs more. Some of it can be imported but then there are the transportatiln costs, and at least part of the food needs to have grown in the same climate. In addition everybody needs warm clothes, footwear for the different weathers, etc. So the cost level here in a cold climate of four seasons is much higher than in the tropics. Some say that an engineer in Adrica can do engineering work in the internet, esrning some 2000 euros per month, while his middle-class way of life in Africa takes just a few euros per month, so that he can save in a bank some 2000 euros per month wjile his colleagues in Europe use all their wage to their daily life. So it seems that Africa is rich in what comes to superfluous money, while we here in the northern countries have no extra money. Some say that so big diffetencies in the possibilities to earnkng money lead to that we have to give up using money and find some other ways to survive and to earn a living, and to arrange our societies.
f14. My new book "The best fact language is like music" at the Amazon internet bookshops
f15. 9th of August 2023 I was thinking of how people from the tropics tend to keep their stomach muscles unmoving, it seems rigidly the same all the time, which does not allow variations in the ways of doing according to the things done. The ever varying weathers in a climate of four seasons bring lots of such variation, which to me feels like needed for wisdom of lufe, and is good for health and revovery, but as said the people voming from the tropics do not seem to take the Finnish weathers that way. And I do not know if so much variation of weathers is needed for such a basic thing in life. It seems that people with another kind of character could get the variation in the tropics from the different times of the day with their temperatures and activities. And such variation comes also from the other things done, not only from being outdoors in a certain weather, just for such variations of activities is the need for varied states of mind and ways of doing, which are reflected kn keeping stomach muscles in a certain way. So as one changes from one kind of activity and emotionally felt atmosphete via natural rythms of action to anither activity, say from work start going homewards, go to a hobby, enjoy one's time there and start going homewards in a kind of happy state of mind, which is diffetent from the even tracks of some other people that one knows, so one's rythm of life, stomach muscles, feelings, way of doing vary in natural ways according to the situations, and the rythm is different and more natural than that of the fixedly living.
f16. Some women who vopy too much the outer form of wished for thibgs tend to forget the natural basic action that would make the things work out and bring content to life. Such may be when the women lue so much that they do not group themselves according to in which countries they woukd like to live and what kibd of lufe there, so their ideas of basic ways of doing differ without them guessing right in which groups each one is.
f17. My opinion is that in Finland and also when using Finnish language one should follow the traditional Finnish culture. That means civiliced wisdom and civiliced values together with healthy spirit, common sense and lots of wisdom of life. The basic advice to social relations in Finnish culture is that one should allow other people enough room to live in their own ways without being disturbed by others. For example adult children ought to be left to live on their own according to their own wisdom of life, without sending people to them or asking them to follow advices of the parents. All ought to find their own ways of being social, where to live, what work lne likes, which are one's personal choices, etc, and one should not mix old social spheres with the new ones, not claim other reasons for going near adult child's living environment, just leave him/her to live one's life in peace in one's own spheres of life.
f18. 10th of August 2023 In thinking of large wholes like the society or it's parts, it is important to remember to think theoretically of ghe whole world and it's theoretical ideals, so that one has all the tkme in sight what would be the goal in each matter and so one knows that for correcting things toward better one should correct toward following the ideals in practice. So one instead of ending up in a mess, ends up with things well, people happy, free and wise.
f19. I wonder why so many people do not wish well for the world. And they do not follow the advices of civiliced wisdom and healthy common sense in what comes to things outside their own expertice. Without it being the goal of very many in practice powerful or of all, it is quite unlikely that the future would be good. Especially if people do not understand social contacts being a part of the society, so that getting living conditions good in a society would demand behaving well, fairly and wisely also in social situations and not only in voting, how could the society be good to live in. And if even professional position gets used to malicious fights against others, how can people imagine that life would continue in the human world, if already hunter gatherers and early farmers used work like things for the right purposes, dearly needed them to that.
f20. What people look like usually has to do with what they are doing, what life feels like and whom they presently associate with and what is their lufe situation at large.
If someone looks like caring or skilled, it rarely is something copied from a mom or a social relation, since copying produces robot like looks of repeating memorised orders, and not emotionally motivated caring looks finely tuned to the natural situation. Looks as if loved people get typically on free time when they can choose what to do and have space to live in ways that are good for themselves wise from the point of view of wisdom of life. So a good environment is often one that allows well room for personal life choices in harmony with the society and shelters the possibility to them. Close personal ties to family members and to closest friends are often seen elsewhere as the person being reserved to such company instead of being open to new life possibilities, and in the company of the closest ones as strong habitual way to live together and share one's own views of life with them without being shaken away from following one's feelings and best understanding. An adult rarely longs for the presence of one's childhood mum's effect near one's body. Such would cause dtrong conflict. If one looks caring, it is often toward one's own life, and if ond longs for someone called "mom" near to help, it is often at times of severe illness wishing for the help of good-willing skilled nurses, or of some good willing person, but not at all the childhood mom or childhood relatives. In social life each one typically fknds a special spot where it is good for oneself to live and that typically means that one has syrenghts and peace to develop them, so that each one has a different style, has chosen different areas of lufe as one's favourites or different cjoices in those ateas of lufe, in addition to the general knowledge and ordinary life skills of most. So typically kn adult life all grow to go different ways, except maybe the married couple who have a love marriage of thrir own liking.
f21. The old married couple often wonders whether they ought to stay together or not when the adult children have moved to live on their own. But often they just luve together and it is quite pleasant, kind of glancing at the garden from the stairs of the house and kind of noticing that "there he/she still is" halfway at the other side of the garden. In the eyes of the younger generstions it is quite serene and effortlessly running, having many small joys of the daily life, much like what the drawn pictures in a book about Finnish Christmas gnome like gnomes on an old farm, peaceful, serene, kind of happy and kind of ordinary at the same time, the richness of daily lufe being in small things that the environment and way of life offer.
f22. Often one's view of what is Christmas gnome like life, is build of small peeks to the lives of others where those things fascinate. Typically it is some unplanned moments where living the ages old life of children running to shelter from pouring rain or some other natursl phenomena in life intdrrupt the too planned ways of doing. Similsrly when I practised sports it was good to meet pleasant challenges in areas of life that I was not good at. Often Christmas gnlme like life is kn being fit and meeting new things so shortly that the ordinary advices in them make sense and lufe feels rich of sensations and areas of lufe to ecperience like changing to another kind of job.
f23. 11th of August 2023 Here in Finland it has traditionally been the problem that some would like to get Swedish or Swedish speaking influencies, saying only that it is said to be very much the same as Finnish speaking Finnish so that it must be good too. But the Swedish are very imago oriented, unlike the Finnish, so they often take care of outer form, position and their reputation only, while things may go poorly for other countries and cultures and under the surface. So I have wondered why there has increasingly been in the air that we would need African influencies, that such would solve some problem. Is it a problem of the Swedish speaking culture that thdy don't see under the surface, so Swedish inclined people who would like to get a peek to the real dynamics of the world, seek whete there is no such fine culture, even if that is with a wish to attach northerners and kill us. But that too does not teach the real dynamics of the world. The real dynamics are seen by observing the structures of the world like physics does and nature sciences do, and school education seeks to do, like theoretical philosophy seeks to do and like is the idea in building an objective picture of the world. The most straightforward association of the name of Finland's capital Helsinki is "hell sin too", since the ending "-ki" means in Finnish language "also", bringing the meaning that all optilns, all things have to be taken into account objectively in building a picture of the situation and of the world, instead of just lying outer form to be nice and then left guessing that there are some options not discussed or taken fully into account, namely evil, and so they start thinking that the next step would be to invest in evil. So Swedish and Swedish speaking culture are very different from the Finnish which as culture values honesty, even though most Finns have so much foreign influencies from some other country's culture that they like, that mostly they do not follow Finnish culture and are not honest. The Finnish speaking Finnish culture's view on understanding the dynamics of the society and of individual people, of social relations etc, is that you have to have lots of healthy wisdom of life in addition to the basic wise civiliced view of the society, since if you are not allowed space to live in, you do not have the strenght to bear the arrangements, however good they are claimed to be.
f24. 11th of August 2023 "About the reasons why one has to go to school
When schools start one notices already on ghe first day, that even though there is wisdom bought by the summer holidays still left, school makes atmosphere and level of quality lowet, but school does force some ordinary lying öeople to try toward school rationality, which in turn makes communicatiln better in the so iety. It is good to go to school for some time, I mean good to learn something for life, and so the first classes quite make sense, but the problemis if from slme point on it no longfr makes sense to go to school. Then it usually so that some adults in the child's or teenager's environment long for something svhool like to their oen luves, for example therigid strenght of school kind of rationality, so that the money and resources meant for education should be guided to many kinds of adult education optilns, especially via the internet. In ghe university education of the teachers there is a beautigul view of school, ghat pupils need to learn for life and that's what school seeks to do with as good quality as possible, as fairly for all as possible, but usually the teacher does not think of the arrangements made, just tries, has a work and luves one's life, without seeming to recognise the effects on pupils. One reason for school being so work like and lasting years, is that one needs to know that such isn't a good arrangement, since such forcing is one of the most common destroyers of good life of adults. Some time years ago I sent my thinking course to the president of USA who was Barack Obama, and it was as if he hed on some mental side said ghat in shortenkng school it would be realistical to arrive at a five years of school, but not shorter than that, I do not remember but I guess that the reason was that the students need to have ghe chance to get used to following school like tjinking and school like picture of the world with it's andwers to lufe's usual problems even if ghe young person's childhood home envirlnment wasn't academically educated or the like."

f28. 15th of August 2023 Sometimes it happens that if some public thing which requires lots of skills and talents and favourable circumstancies, if it does not work out ok, some say thst they should hire animals or pets to make it work, but of course they mostly do not get it to work with animals either since they just cannot get such communication, cooperation, skill and diligence with animals. So it just goes ashtray with some mischiebous hen or black dog running around and messing tbings, or the nice gentle white ranbit or whatever sitting uninterestedly in some corner. But if one is religious or kind of artisticly sensitive to some spiritual connectiön affe ting things, one can benefit frlm friendly animals ghat way. And often animals, at least dogs, have some passionate interest or some job that they know a lot about and do in a good way, like a pet with 50 pennies might look like a rich man and really understand about such. (Be it a coincidence or not, I bought a room plant called "money tree" when I had two pet dogs, and it really seemed that it is possible to learn about money from a money tree.) So slme pets maybe far away could understand alsl about tv etc, so judt being polite and offering them the chance on the spiritual side might make tv work out well, but that means that one must not command the animals but instead one must respect yheir profwssional skklls, tAlents and dedication, even of some so oriented mice.
f29. I looked at my old pictures. I have been mainly sleepy the two and a half years that I have had this mobile phone. Here is a picture from February one and a half years ago. The Christmas gnome theme in my writing work was then too all the time in my life.
16th of August 2023 Here are some older pictures from Savonlinna, first my dogs:
Some forest road with scenery lake views in Punkaharju:
A common traditional flowering bush where I used to walk by with my dogs.
Views from my window here is Espoo one and a half years ago in January.
In the beginning of February last year, the twinded edge threads of a red-white woolen winter blanket
f30.
f31. The Christmas gnome like elderly man whom I saw almost five years ago on a bus stop where I lived in Savonlinna, see the beginning of this long text, was not so much a surprised because the people who lived there also many did handicrafts and the lufe was quite centered on nature, summer cottage like life, grandparents' home and arts which encourage one do fine atmospheric things like high culture values, kind of each piece good quality in what comes to wisdom of life, and the charm of a small countryside town and religion too.
