Unconceptualized nature as a source of wisdom, UO

 The Finnish language word for Finland is Suomi. It as far as I know comes from the words "mi suo" that which gives by giving the possibility to something that is a part of wise good life in the world. "Suo"means also a swamp. It is said that Finland as a northern country has much varying weathers and also quite much rain. So where there is even ground without ditches may quite often have been swamps, but many of them are small, often only a few meters wide between hills or ridges. A swamp is quite clearly unconceptualised, jyst some grasses, mosses of varied types and colours, some water and mud, maybe small pines where there is an island like form of land or of moss. Of phonetical meanings U means unconceptualised, while O means ready made form of understanding. So the Finnish nature has given Finnish culture an unique and wise form of wisdom of lufe, that resembles the Buddhist notion of emptiness (from taught rigid concepts) as a source of rich sensory experience of life. It arises from enjoying and respecting the beauty and wisdlm of the nature. So one liking more some other climate's and culture's nature, wildlufe and wilderness, would find it best thete in the climate and country where the sights and shapes, coloyrs, atmospheres, impressions of wisdom of the nature convince one of the value of such foreficures in wisdom in the art of livkng. So the unconceptualused means walking or otherwise e joying the sensed beauty of nature and learni g from it, also observing that a nature landscape is a good ages old  form of a picture of the world. 



* 

(   9th of January 2024   Recreation on natural swamps requires wooden tracks via which to walk without harming the nature or spoiling the sight of nature around. One cannot swim in mud, so falling may cause desth. The wooden tracks are typically fliating, made of umpainted dry wood, and carry only one adult at a time. But a such an arching track of a few tens of meters of swamp environment and then again on solid ground, would often be enough for most. Keeping mostly quiet but admiring the beauty of small plants (28th Jan. 2024   different moss individual's etc characteristic beauty, the atmospheres of their wisdom of life of skills for ways of living) and the atmospheric beauty of the ladscape is good for such an experience. 

A swamp means that the ground tends to give in under the feet, so that even where one can walk on the moss, the next step too tends to give in under the feet. Such an experience in other things in life is typically compared with a swamp. The solutiln to such is to build in each place upon what naturally grows therd, is possible there. So if one succeeds well in such, one gets varied types of trees, each suited to it's environment, like letting people in a society choose freely their job, as long as it (and the effects of such a person having such a job so there) is good for the society and the world, for the lives of all fairly, healthily. Another way is to count on what usually carries well everywhere, so also here, which is like counting on a good theory perspective of the wide world, and the wooden tracks on a swamp resemble that option.   )

This way one can increase the quality of a stuck rigid theory perspective and it's way of objective thinking, if the perspective is not intelligent. 

An example of such improvement would maybe be adding everyday life common sense and wisdom of life with beautiful values and fair play too, to one's theoretical view of the world.

Of how good luck is born

 " *

Thinking of good luck, it seems to be in a culture who values wisdom of lufe and indkvidual freedom while following civiliced values. It seems that if one personally likes some new things which guve a reluef to work, kind of play like approaches the area of life here and thete, folliwing the wisdom of the society and respecting it's values  then one has a fresh view and a liking of springing to more complex action which is wished for in the world, while the others are less interested and so more stuck to their ordinary ways. 

Having a chanca, grasping it wisely, such being of a wished for kind in the society, world and the social envitonment and good for oneself from the point of view of wisdom of lufe and wiser views to the world.

About publicity + later about position per type of deed and not per person

  I guess that publicity is born of phenomena in the society, of ghe wishes of groups and not of single persons. Like if there ws in Savonlinna an interest in making homes nice and comfortable to live in like grandparents' home at a countryside town, or good for arts and the like, that anyway is a demand in the society, a wish of many for their own lives. Even if there live artists in Savonlinna, it does not appear the same as interest in single individuals. Like this week in the Yle news, which I read here in the capital district in Espoo, there was an article of a Finnish Eurovision singer of 2023 having rented his apartment in Helsinki to others. It sounded like impossible to control what happens with such, does it cause misunderstandings, and so it no longer was a home but instead an apartment with an Eurovision singer theme, with a huge painting of him on the wall etc. Likewise now that I am without a dog after having had two higly learned dogs, I slmetimes wonder if I should have a female dog and with it puppies, but I do not know what to do with the people interested in such from some lying poibt of view, so it jydt turns out impossible. Instead such would be possible as a phenomenom of the world, instead of puppies from paradise theoretician's kennel, they could have somewhere puppues with a paradise theme, with different influencies about things suiting it, like for examole emotionality of some countrues would interest those who like them, etc.

If you start blogging, choose subject that you like and add to it some usually liked subject that you too like, share an interest in. And find some nice photos of yours, the site looks much better with photos, and maybe continue by adding something magnifient suggested by a friendly family member, friend or the like. You can later alter the text, but at least you get a good start, so you learn something about blogging.

" 10th of December 2023   Maybe it is typical to the very best in arts or religion, and not so typical to philosophers and other thinkers, but I feel that especially in what comes to my blog learntalents.blogspot.com the need for media visibility or similar search engine visibility of it and it's parts is huge, almost too huge for me to handle and typically much much too huge for the people that I know, or have in my younger years known, to handle. It does not seem to be their task. So the number of people giving objective fair backup seems to be nonexistent, especially since the need to inform is in the wide world and not just in Finland. 

My IQ was 170 in the official Mensa test in the 1990's, and I have made the thinking course and the advices in learning talents and skills, which are in the two first posts of the blog learntalents.blogspot.com .

The knitting tips at https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2017/10/knitting-tips.html are liked by the Scottish & British as far as I know.

The long long text https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2018/09/gnomes-or-more-likelily-doing-things-in.html teaching skills and talents for a Christmas gnome like or Christmas elf like life in the modern world, year around, world wide, contains over 1500 separate texts plus links to my other blogs, and has lots of ideas/taught skills that seem to be worth attention and need some time to themselves. The advertisement page https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2023/01/christmas-gnome-internet-institute.html gives some idea of these. 

"

Or is it that I should have some common sense like Wikipedia page? But it always gets immediately destroyed and also the conversation erased. My name is Kaisa Hannele Tervola. My books are available at www.amazon.com/author/khtervola . But those or their subjects are largely above what people claim to be possible to achieve, so I guess that is the reason for no info. Generally wise thinkers etc have the same problem of no colleagues of better or same level. So mostly such people lack info from Wikipedia etc, of have pfoblems because of sabotage.

11th of December 2023    If you are on my pages but have somehow lost where is the internet, in each page almost upmost there ought to be one row of text with the present page's internet address in it. If you click on a link and go to a new page, the link's address is usually on the address row of the new page. So anyway, you can write a new internet address to that row and press return or Go to page or the like, and so you go to that page, which is the usual way of using the internet. If you go to the page www.google.com there is a possibility to make internet searches there by writing ghe search term to the text box in the muddle of the page abd pressing return or the like.

GAIN FAIR POSITION PER TYPE OF DEED, ETC

From my text about women's position, see the link in tge advertisement page of The Christmas Gnones Internet Institute https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2023/01/christmas-gnome-internet-institute.html 

"Basics of position

" W7.   Often one gets along and gets solid position when one respects the values of the area of life at hand and tries to learn it's skills in a good quality way and cultivate them well in ways that respect that area's values and motivation and what livibg in a society needs for the society to be good to live in, now and in the future. 

W8.   What people get position from and how they get treated, is from what they do from momentvto moment, which are the values followed in that, which level of skills in each thing done or thought of, and what is the way of being social, and is it fair, honest, responsible, etc. 

"


Learning skills which give a higher position

W11.   "If you want a better position, the rule "Live and let others live!" F60. in the Christmas gnome text, followed all the time in everything, with commln sense and lots of wisdom of life, tends to give so lots of freedom as long as one follows the rule with wisdom. It also tends to give a much higher position to decide about things  since things usually run smoothly with such wisdom. 

If you need extra skills to gain position to influence things, try E11. Easy quick school for animals, M8. Like a hero of old times, and N97. Emperor's power. "

...

"

N97.   My first name Kaisa has the association "keisari"= emperor. What i have learned from it, is that an emperor's power isn't for a certain person or position but instead for a certain type of deeds, so in practice for many different kinds of persons and for them per deed and not continually. The person should be responsible, wise and skilled enough, work fairly for the good of the country and of the world.

"An extremely handsome man"

 I thought I had stopped writing, but I somehow felt like explaining the social sides of Lea Laven's song "Ei oo, ei tuu" which I felt boys reacted to very badly when I was a child. And something about handsome men too. 

 1. Lied and acted good will isn't the same as wisdom of life which is good for the society too.

2. If a girl or a woman has different dream job, values, liked places to live in, liked cultures etc than one's parents and the town one lives in, those who are at the right dire tion look handsome but are often of a wrong type for oneself, typically changing from the charming areas of lufe toward the professilns etc that lne wants to distance oneself from. It would help a lot if one could choose a district to live in which fascinates oneself and a nice job. 

3. "An extremely handsome man" in a woman's gesture language is usually the woman's own view of one's manly skills, but those are like a sprinter's, a spark of short time interest, instead if the work like exhausted typical to many men. It would be good to choose a spouce with whom one gets well along, a social relation with whom it is good to live, things in life work out well, one is happy in a natural way, both enjoy such life, it is good for skills, wisdom of life, it offers one space to live in, a good living environment, so lne naturally likes it and tends to smile, and that is why it is said that one ought tp choose a beautigul or handsome one, it means one for whom it feels good to live with ypu. It often means someone with similar likings abd wisdom of life but often of a dufferent age or otherwise with different strenghts, instead of getting stuck to forced rigid ways. 




4. Finding "an extremely handsome man" connects often with a phenomenom of which Asian philosophy has the saying "When the student is ready, a teacher appears" of which I wrote some piece of advice in my long text about the Skills of Christmas gnomes learntalents.blogspot.com . I mean when a person has own skills and wisdom of life and longs for some element to one's life, some area of life added, which sparks and lifts lne high especially in the beginning, maybe lifts high also the effect of the new human relatilnships there, but it works only based on one's own wisdom of life, and not if others force one to lean on the others in questilns of wisdom of life etc, instead of relying on one's own wusdom of life. 


Obs. With whom lne wants to live closely together or copy from is typically a personal matter, but in any case one must leave others room to live in, also for childhood family members as they grow up. Room to live in is a question concerning life in the society. It isn't place for childhood competition or social matters.

About places suited to different professions

From Skills of Christmas gnomes 31. 

 " f4.   "

Hi
I 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.

"


In connection with several towns in the Saimaa lake district applying for being ghe cultural capital of EU some year, there was talk about shore fish parties. Such are possible kind of everywhere in tge world where there is a shore and traditional ways supporting such life. The children like such. And if one were for example a smith selling traditionally ornamented hatches for doors or gates, maybe lanterns etc, would it be better if the village had a shore fish party for the kids, kind of a better holiday destination for the ones who long for such?

One against many

 When I as younger practised the Japanese martial art aikido, it was at first surprising that sometimes we also practised defence of one person against a few attackers. It went by throwing the first one in front of the next one so that there was only one attacker at a time. Now as older and without having lately had any such hobby, it seems just that it is a fight anyway, so it does not appear a good tactic for one against many.



Generally if one is of a so much same kind of group that one understands the others and can choose also peaceful solutions, if one is weak it is like a child in the company of adults, just going along and when the theory perspective of the group or adults' views so allow one can wander to other activities or just walk away. If one is somehow equal and accepted, the group's values, ways, the choices of individuals and the situation at hand determine a lot. If one is much more skilled and somehow with a good input with lots of wisdom of life, one is maybe like an elderly in the company of younger ones, somehow leading somewhat but mostly just going one's own ways. 

Likewise of cultures: are you like a worker doing a favor, yet for yourself deciding about local matters. Or do you try to get far away cultures agree about your own ways, which do not suit them. Do you catch the pictures of the world of others so much that you can communicate to newcomers, what is what and how basic things go and why to do here so. 


* * *

4th of November 2023   Belonging to a group 

Usually belonging to a group has quite much of this same kind of motivation. And typically the group wants to know that you are capable of at least some self-defence, so that you are not their weak link, not a burden. Like preferring company when walking outdoors in the night time. If a child wants to come along, it is usually more strictly commanded to stay close to parents and just walk briskly without stopping for long.

 And if one is strong, others maybe consider it a good tactic to learn from, and a good choice to choose for the time being, and safer too. 

If you are approximately an average member of the group, it matters that you agree with the group about the ways, understanding, values etc to follow while in the group, and classify yourself to some kind of subgroup of it that creates space for your type of people inside the common goals, ways, picture of the world and the common skill level, in harmony with the rest of the world at least in theory. 


Many against one

If one is weak, quite often one dies soon. Or one cannot choose fairly what happens to oneself. 

If the many attack one because the one appears so monstrous and huge, the one us propably surprised, and cannot understand how numbers are estimated. 

Or then it is someone who just wanted such looks or reputation because of knowing how to use such an effect.

If it is a murderer killing some kind of people or groups or doing some other evil, the situation maybe often leaves an i.pression as if she/he/someone or one's own sensations had said the person saying "Oh, I got this close, even though I shouldn't have, because you do not know, you do not understand, you haven't noticed. So you will see what happens later on /now because of this." To which often helps to notice that such a company is not a good idea, not even for a short while, and not in the living environment of one's types of people.

Likewise there other fakes, like position on false grounds leaving wishes unanswered and causing some big harm instead, or sabotager destroying things of value from the group or society, for example one fed up with following school education's view on values pretending to be teacher of such moral.

9 books or e-books about the Skills Of Christmas Gnomes

 "The Christmas Gnomes Internet Institute"

 See https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BLLS8BWC?binding=kindle_edition&ref_=ast_author_bsi

(As e-books cheaper: some 3usd per e-book. Read the back cover /info texts to see what each book offers.) 

From book 5. : 

"the orientation options of the institute, which are 

A Christmas gnome ( including dream job and moving to where you like to live ), 

An angel, 

A hero, 

A miracle healer, 

A composer and

An emperor. 

For the miracle healer there is the blog curingguesses.blogspot.com but the problem is that the original parantamisesta.blogspot.com is in Finnish but would be needed. About angels see the following text.

These are just advices for living a Christmas gnome like life year around, but since Christmas gnomes make presents all the year for Christmas, someone whose dream job would be ok for an angel, since this is useful work after all, could maybe this way learn to live the life of an angel.

For being a Christmas angel I guess that one would need skills of making the landscape peaceful and atmospheric : see the comment about mobile phone's local area share, plus living with the seasons, plus experiencing the seen environment as beautiful, plus likibg music. 

For becoming a hero of old times in the modern world see especially M8. but preferably the whole blog text. 

For becoming a music composer, see F35. in part 6., the link in D1. about healthy ways of living, and see if there is anything else of interest in the blog.

In all these orientation possibilities the blog Skills of Christmas gnomes offers the basic way of living in a society, enjoying one's time and having a somewhat sheltered place in the society that is good to live in. 

About emperor's power read N97. Read also here the previous post https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2023/01/womens-position-like-that-of-others.html on a link about women's position, plus in part 1. the text before the picture of a flower, and in a way the whole blog is thought of being in some way useful for people ruling, what there is needed in the society and in ghe world. "


25.9.2023   


Christmas gnomes are a subject often recommended for the ill or on a poor day, so for library kind of use the e-books would be a better choice. 


27.9.2023   About the book "Tontun vuosi" by Manninen, from which these five years of writing started, see P9. https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2022/08/what-this-christmas-gnome-like-life-is.html . There ought to an English language version of the book. 

After these nine books about the Skills Of Christmas Gnomes, by Kaisa Hannele Tervola, there are also two small books and the beginning of a ghird one about the Wisdom Of Life For Christmas Elves, by Kaisa Hannele Tervola, see www.amazon.com/author/khtervola . But the second and third books in that are mostly quotations from my earluer texts, so my writing work seems to be over. I am just exhausted and need more active healthy kind of life with many kinds of things to do and enough fair play. 

During the last few chapters of writing about Christmas gnomes or Christmas elves, the possible readers have seemed more interested in famous people's views on the skills for a Christmas gnome or Christmas elf like lufe. I guess that books about the lives of old times' famous cultural forefigures would offer interesting thoughts if one reads about such forefigures on the professions etc that one is sincerely interested in. But those are the views of the other persons who wrote memoirs of their early lives etc, and not of those who really lived in some kind of circumstancies and achieved something valuable. So it makes more sense to read such of the old times than of the present day people. 





30th of September 2023   The cover picture of the book series has at the background an edge of a pine forest patch which we had in between the three apartment houses. So it is green and orange brown, but in the covers it is somehow just light grey. So the books on a self do not look like life according to feelings or changing profession to a dream job that one would take care of well and endure endlessly or quite long, instead of a laborous not-suited professiln recommended by others. And similarly of the place lived in. So I changed the covers to just red without any pictures, or mostly so, since after all it is difficult to communicate to other climates and other cultures all over the world. 

Especially typical to these texts is that they leave a somehow positive and sheltered feeling, like good will and solving problems often do if the end result is good for feelings. 

I changed the covers again to get red spines plus covers partly red and partly pictures from the time of the texts in that book, except some earlier pictures and earlier texts in Savonlinna. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09K1TWF4R?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860

3rd of October 2023   I changed the colours and layout of the covers, since the basic red theme of the cover creator program was too aggressive and unwise. I tried to find Christmas red, but did not find clearly such, so I chose Buddhist orange: senses open, motion, wishing well in the world and good observational capacity for objective thinking, plus red like Finnish speaking Finns: practical life with senses open, wisdom of lufe and common sense of each, plus good will in the wide world like civiluced objective thinking advices to have, and in varied amounrs Christmas like good will and happiness. The new colours made me feel relieved and at least the some books of the series that I read a luttle bit with the new covers appeared more interesting and kind of positive, so the colours seemed a good choice. 

* * *

16th of October 2023   If there is really lots of wisdom of life to learn, wisdom of life taught and a taste of life, kind of a beginning of a new life. It is maybe somewhat like the beginning of a new life in the first days after the birth of a baby. So one could eat a quite small piece of "kernijuusto", cheese like milk product made by baking in the oven from the milk of a cow that has during the last few days given birth to a new cow baby, but the first milk is for the baby cow and one must make sure that it gets also later what it needs. So one could eat a quite small piece of such cheese like product right when starting or having just started to read the texts about the skills of Christmas gnomes at learntalents.blogspot.com see the beginning at https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2018/09/gnomes-or-more-likelily-doing-things-in.html  or the indexes of the healing blog with the healing advices in each header, see parantamisesta.blogspot.com and curingguesses.blogspot.com since the advices belong to a way of life that one can follow to stay healthy. Maybe also when reading about the healthy natural ages old ways of living https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2015/11/healthy-ways-of-living.html .

As I wrote this and was left sensing some atmosphere in the air and old memories, I think that milk for a newborn has some element of forgetting past experiences, so it isn't good for this kind of learning new wisdom of life based on one's earlier experience of life, kind of in the same world. I do not know how it would be for big changes in one's way of life like changing climate zone or cultural domain, thinking that you are like a young child. https://yle.fi/a/74-20055328 

For starting a new life, in what would be good for it, one must see what it compares with, what it is like and try that. Like if lufe went badly, maybe it was strenous and not so wise ways of living and views. So the ordinary advice to such is that one shoukd start anew: sleep well ( I guess with fresh or quite fresh air), eat well which means healthily and enough but not in overly food oriented ways, have healthy ways of living and spend some time also outdoors, daily and in the daylight time, with some refreshing motion too, plus read daily some civiliced books which have healthy spirit and healthy wisdom of lufe and are considered wise in tge world. Listening to natilnal radio might fit to the same too, since it is aimed for all, trying to give good capacity in thinking, friving, livibg in the society and living the weathers.

( 7th of April 2023, Easter Friday   If you were left without advices about some basic element in this Christmas gnome skills text, ask a librarian or friends about it, since in many cases I have supposed that there is lots of informatiln available for example about hobbies - go to hobby courses that you like! 

13th of April 2023   I used to have some kind of position very high since i hadgood will and  theoretical ideals as my strenght and not so much other knowledge except wisdom of life and school learning. So the reader too can get a much higher position than before in some respects, but unfortunately i haven't had much position in practice, in social life etc. )

7th of August 2022   The most useful links are mostly in the beginning of the first part. 

This text about tge skills of Christmas gnomes is NOT a tale. 

15th of August 2022   This text consist mainly of advices kn learning skills and talents that help to make lufe Christmas gnome like. So going back to a text that you liked, which you found to make you lufe more comfortable, peaceful, happy or whatever, and studying that advice, using it in your daily life, can often make those good sides a lasting part of your life. 

21st of August 2022   The text became overly long. I felt that the readers were waiting for texts like M1., M8., N97., O10. and O11. and once they found those, there wasn't any need for me to write this blog. 

22nd of August 2022   My old Christmas postcards & some other cards.


 P1.   7th of September 2022   Today is four years since I started this blog text about the skills of Christmas gnomes. The text ended 3 years 11 months and 3 days after that, and after that i have been with an empty head. But Christmas gnomes are a somewhat religious subject, so better to connect it somehow with 3 than 4, even though 4 too can be gnome like if one connects it with the four seasons https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html .

 P2.  8th of September 2022   I came to write a lot, this and that advices about lufe, guided by what i had learned from teaching my dogs which learned superbly well, were responsible characters and got nicely along with others. So i guess this is as near as one could get being taught like a child of my own, which i never had. The Finnish culture gives good possibilitues for learning and growing, but what one becomes like is something lne must decide oneself. Making the world a good place to live in is essential in that. In that choosing one's dream job gives one a place kn the society. Wisdom of life is important too, and skills of living the weathers. School is considered just basic learning. 

 P3.  10th of September 2022   If you live abroad and do not have the same gnome like possibilities in life, i guess that radio, at least classical music and radio interviews, offers something in the direction of natureand peeks to people with fascinating jobs, and it is worth checking what the town has arranged as possible ways to spend free time, and employment bureau's view of dream jobs & their education being possible brings a better feeling day.

P4.   11th of September 2022    Lately, as if some evil cynical man had said it on some mental or spiritual side, there has been in my tjoughts that one year from now this Christmas gnome skills text will have vanished from most of the world. And some tkme ago today as if he had said that it will be erased next year's spring 25th of March 2023 or earlier. And stay only if Santa Claus, Christmas magic and church some manage to shelter it somewhere. 
12th of September 2022   But since it seems that the text is ready, it across time begins to be old text, kind of dusty, nothing new in it. Today i somehow came associste it with old Chinese poetry and Kahlil Gibran's books. So I guess it will find it's place in literature across time. 

P5.  13th of September 2022   These books ("Skills Of Christmas Gnomes" & "Skills Of Christmas Gnomes, continued" by Kaisa Hannele Tervola) have a demand in the wide world and not so much in Finland since these things are not so new to Finns, even though they may interest travellers. 

P6.  1100 advices is maybe how much a music professional is guessed to have own wisdom of life about how to make life in the society better. 

P7.  16th of September 2022   If reading this text about Christmas gnomes brings influencies from a certain kind of life, that maybe isn't a gnome like place but instead it is what you learned from reading and applied to your picture of your life, since after all there are so many types of dream jobs, places to live in, etc. 

P8.  19th of September 2022   I came to look st an advertisement of Savonlinna Opera Festival www.operafestival.fi and noticed that i grasped it like this i have to get, like i feel that happened to some who ordered this text about the skills of Christmas gnomes. So i wonder if with opera in Savonlinna's St Olav's Castle is that it is longed for by too many, so that there ought to be some international network of ooera houses instead of jyst one small castle yard during the hottest summer in July.  Here is Verdi's Aida : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w9glqJO7XEU&t=251s


Opera tells of big feelings and major matters in life and in the world. So it's view agrees with good quality objective thinking and so with working lufe too. That together with high skill level makes it high culture instesd of just free time enjoyment.
Likewise religion in Finland often seeks to support high quality objective thinking and civiliced values together with healthy ways of living and wisdom of life. 

P9.  20th of September 2022   Idid a search for the book Tontun vuosi from which this Christmas gnome skills text started. With at least roughly just the same cover picture and same authors there is the English book "Finnish Elves for All Seasons" by Kirsti Manninen and pictures by Aki Paavola, published by Maahenki which is kind of spiritual and farmers' view. It seems to be sold in shops that sell used books. There was also one seller that seemed international https://www.bookdepository.com/Finnish-Elves-for-All-Seasons-Kirsi-Manninen/9789525870466 but the book was not available at the moment. 
This second hand book shop posts abroad too and has now a few books available https://www.antikvaari.fi/k/kirsti-manninen/finnish-elves-for-all-seasons/001ee8fedf7e793858d92be8 .
But the book is about Finnish tradition about gnomes or elves and traditional ways of living. While this blog text is about skills needed for living a Christmas gnome like life in the modern world all around the world. So the subject is of a different character. Besides, abroad their own traditional ways of living the westhers, traditional agriculture, traditional miljos etc might be more exactly right.

P10.  21st of September 2022   If I understood right, a shopjeeper's view maybe is that Christmas gnomes are a subject that suits quite well all climates, and it is a subject that almost all read about sometimes but not all in a rush st the same time. So since I had understanding that would be good to have in large scale questions and since I was interested in Christmas gnome like things, it was a quite good choice for me, but on the other hand quite far from tge sporty lufe I have tyoically liked.  

 P11.   22nd of September 2022   I wrote to my blog about shops and shopping, that the Chinese do not, at leasr many Chinese do not see China as scarse, instead they experience China as full, buzzling, fascinating good life. Chinese have some good products planned by old skilled people to work well and give rich possibilities in life, but many Chinese mistake them to be basic products and so they think that basic things are enough and would drop other products away. For example oedinary match box with a picture of a dragon in it, chopsticks and food bowl and the bang bang drums of Chinese festivities. 

P12.   23rd of September 2022
I found this video of farming in a remote place in Russian Taiga. But usually making a video spoils the culturally homogenous civiliced life.

P13.   24th of September 2022   Indian craftsmen make wooden decorations.

P14.   (1111th entry if i counted right)   I do not know how to continue this text, and i do not want to continue it, since i have already written too much and lost my skills by reading my own texts from which i have nothing to learn, i instead forget everything if i read, and so it stays. The natural way to continue would be to add nice little gnome like things, for example pictures of something that fits the miljo, or likewise nice songs, but those do not work out and so i need to remove themright after adding, since the miljo  weather and culture aren't the same in tropics, Japan, Amazon, Arab countries, etc as here in the northern climate of four seasons, so the small nice things do not work out in the global scale, and when i try such it feels that after a while some overemphasize every detail of what and where, as uf i had had many good options to cjoose from, instead of having found just one video or song which seems to lack the drawbacks which prevented from using the earlier nice fine videos and songs. 

P15.   5th of October 2022   "Christianity has been centuries in Finland. Earlier there was Ukko ( Old Man ) Upper god, which was respect for nature and for the important things in life, both in the world and in one's own life, and that was seen in a landscape like view with the trees, cliffs and lakes in it, and humans and animals living in that landscape quite solitary holistically rational lives, much like objective civiliced thinking in these modern times, but respect for the nature was important." Ylijumala means Upmost god, which connected with a global good will in the spirit of fair play, and emphazis on respect for values which are important in life, for lives to work out well. Thunderstorm is "ukonilma", meaning "the weather of Ukko the upmost god of the old times", and much else isn't known. It is said that Ukko the upper god keeps order that way ( like in conversation like someone who is convinced about values, answers if important values are threatened by a too low quality ) or is angry. But that was over a thousand years ago. Yet the climate still asks for the same kind of virtues, at least partly. 
 
P16.  6th of October 2022   I do not know but is it so that foreigners who have come to the country because they wsnt a baby with a local, may look clumsy and out of place and be much too dominant for the local culture, but they maybe wish to live here and be parts of the local culyure, so they maybe would be receptive towards information of the need to follow local culture, it's civiliced wisdom, and how one can learn it, kind of basic knowledge like people from another continent or entirely different kind of lufe need, but from several person so that it would not be so narrow view. 
( 7th of October 2022   For a quick 15min school see E11. 

P17.  8th of October 2022   Some say that there are mice in the apartments even if one cannot notice any sign of them, but that they may affect life toward unlucky if they are not treated well. They do not need much. Mostly they would be satisfied if there was at the floor a biscuit that has partly gone to tiny pieces. They would keep that as a reserve, just in case they might need it. I do not know what kind of biscuit but i guess that bakery so that it can lift out of bad luck. Very pure product from seeds etc is another guess. Easiest is what you usually eat,  Christmas bakery for example, but i do not know if mica can eat such. 

P18.   9th of October 2022   I do not feel like being like this gnome skills text, since people's view of Christmas gnomes has as it's parts all kinds of material about gnomes, especially pictures, songs, Christmas gnomes stories and Christmas gnome decorations plus traditions. And to this text it seems that i need to choose softening things that might suit people all over the world. So only the views on skills are mine but not the overal picture of gnomes. 

P19.  The beginning of this blog text has been written in Savonlinna in Savo in eastern Finland, and the rest, somewhat over half of the text in Espoo in the capital district at the southern coast of Finland. So this is not a Lapplandish view. 

P20.   10th of October 2022   In the old times some aristocrats were called "herttua" which means duke but the word is heart or loving, but as far as i understand itwasn't erotical love but instead was an elderly couple who had somehow loving relationships to a wider group of people, for example being able to get a skilled experienced nurse to help the friends who were ill, and taking care of arrangements like wise religious people wjo have experience of such. Nowadays i think such are some pets, which help their family & friends to be feeling  for example find a reason for the dad to go out find something for the animal so that it is eadier to be with feelings if there is sorrow or the like. The animal having a different sphere of life, more ages old and being able to offer relaxation and free time to one's family & friends. 

P21.   What we learned as children under school age, maybe at the age of 5, was do you want to become a part of the society like adults are, having a profession and building the society so that it is good to luve in for all fairly, instead of just hitting others in the head by a building block and thinking that the society is our of control, outside your own sphere of understanding and so you needing to be always bossed around by others who understand the society but you don't. We don't undersrand much but know thst "Live and let others live." is a good rule to follow in a society, and thst common sense, healthy spirit and some civiluced lesrning are needed, and that responsibility is needed, trwsting big matters as big, caring the world responsibly to a good state, and trwating small matters ss small, as not so important, getting a chance for free time there, and watching everything from the point of view of wisdom if life. And so I became 5 years old. 
  
P22.   11th of October 2022   There is the ideal that young people could be with deeds like flames, wise, feeling with wisdom of lufe, sparkling with insight that brings good life in healthy ways, somewhat like heroes of old times, and older people could be like that too. If one srarts from nothibg, it maybe does not work out. But if your people coukd have civiluced values and have learned basic civiliced wisdom like is needed in lufe and learned it in healthy ways and have healthy ways of living. If they would then learn on free time all kinds of interesting skills withoyt giving up the civiliced values in so doing. Would they then if there was a hobby or a hobby like work for a group which would meet every now and then, would they bring there this and that insight and wisdom of lufe like sparks and have fun, enjoy being aluve, young and wise in ways thst carry in lufe and have healthy spirit. Woukd that be like flames? I liked my non-contact karate-do hobby in my twenties quite much that way. 

P23.   12th of October 2022   One problem with military alliancies is that if some parties are not moral enough. But so it oftenbhappens in life. If one thinks of one's own alliancies, left alone they no longer follow the same values, and if one wants to perform as s group they often do not agree. But so it is with life, each one has an opinion of one's own and so the system works better at every place or so is the idea, but each part also has goals of it's own depending for example on one's profession and human type. The only thing one can count on are throretical ideals, the good things that one can build upon, and so a free society is also the most well working, people offered alternatives that they sre motivated toward. 

P24.   15th of October 2022  " I do not know this well but i guess that if one wanted to change to eating less, for example to a vegetarian with a good mood, i guess that one should not think as one's project, will i go on a diet, or that fat sauce and potatoes is what it needs to be. One should think that like this i can well luve, lufe is pleasant this wsy and social relationships are somehow healthily civilucedly bringing better life, and that it is nice to have as hobbies light wise areas of life like for example some music too in one's life, etc. "

P25.   16th of October 2022   Once this Christmas gnome skills text is ready, people maybe call it the gnome text, but there are so many hundreds or thoysands or even much more Christmas gnome texts, even many books about Christmas gnlmes, that my text just disappears. Some maybe notice that there used to be some teaching material about such skills, but what and where isn't known. And my advices are difficult to remember without losibg the effect, if there isn't any text available to check from. Yet there has been a bigger demand for this Christmas gnome text than for my lufetime's work otherwise, for example healing just by reading a short text, feelings, ratilnality and moral for computers objectively, and paradise theory that makes cyclic view on time possible. And i feel that after my text is ready and disappears to the vast smount of material, other skilked people's lufetime's work get overrun by the need to write lufe advices about gnomes - not for the ill and not for nursery professionals either, but instead for ordinary people whose lufe isn't happy and sheltered enough. The already ready lufe skills texts of good quality shoukd be made available especially kn the internet but also in libraries, to answer the demand in practice! Gnomes as a subject is quite disastrous for the writer who gains no new benefits from it but gets classified as imagination like some not-at-all wise pictures etc, and since tropicians want to be classified as gnomes the writer gets disastrous ways of living as an influence from the tropicians, and the gnomes get classified as a personal interest like on some young reafers without readers understanding that the write wants luve by one's own wisdom of life instead of by glimpses of the imagination ofcreaders both young and old. If there are too many of the gnome books etc, they should be described and classified and possibly quoted to see in which way they have been written, especially if there are millions of them. One shoukd not ruin wise people's luves by the erraneously huge demand for gnome stories, better try write about wisdom of lufe without gnomes being added to it. The www.Google.com search "christmas gnome story" gave some 5 million results and at least the first few were about the subject. One could search also for "christmas elves". 

P26.   17th of October 2022   Last week i passed by near by school's outdoor walk exercise day, and some adult left me with a stomach ache. Only when the ache still continued the next day, did i realize that kuds maybe get such influencies from school teachers and from parents in connection with school studies. So if school is hard to bear it may be a result of these inflyencies. Good school books instead appear with a better atmosphere that is according to the idea that kids study skills and knowledge for lufe. So they should instead of influencies from teachers and parents' view of school, get knfluencies and/or info of what is good school book's writer's view of in which way the book are good and nice to study and how to use them as a helping aid in learnkng. 

P27.   18th of October 2022   This blog does not tell of Lappland. This blog tells of Finland, of the traditional Finnish speaking main culture of Finland. 

P28.   My knowledge of Lapplandish nature is only from photograpfs, videos and from what others have said, but as far as I know, tge Lapplandish nature has very tough lufe because of the lenght and coldness of the winter and the shortness of the summer. So the nature has lots of wisdom of life about surviving the winter but still needs to be treated as frsgile, needing that people try to live in harmony with the nature and it's atmospheres, and that is a task which demands the more the greater the wisdom of lufe needed. So I guess that Santa Claus was trying to explain this by saying that it is as if you needed to give lots of presents to the nature, lots of sensitivity toward it's atmospheres and it's wisdom. Tried to explain that there kn ghe north where life demands much you just have to do many things the right way, have one single perspective in which many things are done wisely the right way, like some fine work it is but such a wide perspective across all life is needed ghere in the north. And that is why the wise have an attitude akin to givkng lots of presents. And wise civiliced lufe is also like that, so it is a good perspective to learn also elsewhere in the world, to make it possible to make the present like things we need or want kn our lives. 

P29.   19th of October 2022   The nature is wise, especially in questions of the weathers and seasons. But many of the animals and plants are also very young, for example the insects and little birds compared to humans. So the nature where you wander tends to copy from your skills, from what you do, so that if you meet a lot certain situations in the lives of animals and plants, it tends to be a reflection of your own approach in the young ankmals etc. So if things do not go well, try different approaches. For example brisk sporty ways give warmth and wisdom of life in the autumn. 

P30.   20th of October 2022   " How long thoughts the citizens should be capable of, how well they ought to think for a certain goverment to work out, means the minimum needed, so for example a hundred times longwr thoughts with good quality is ok. "

P31.   I used to have bad luck because of enemy like people. Lately i have learned to soothe away a big part of it. Whenever there is a glimpse of bad luck, like someone with energy shortage attacking, i try to listen to where there might be such a person quite near for example near the house i live in, and find out if they have eaten much too little, especially calories ( tropical food is not ok, in Finland you need to eat Finnish food, and if you would need to eat overly much, mix lots of butter to your food, but mix it as you eat and not beforehand, so you can stop before eating butter against your will which is unhealthy ), or have much too thin clothes ( go under warmest winter blanket ( täkki ) but leave head outside, so you can see that much much warmer clothes can help ), or do not have the skills of living the season (see https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html ) or are on a diet ( laihdutuskikkoja.blogspot.com ), and in my mind mentally try to get them to correct that error away, and that typically soothes the attacking mindset away. In addition there are foreigners who lack some basic skill and who do not tell it but it soothes the situation if i in my mind try to find a way they coukd learn those basic skills - in the easy quick school for animals ( E11. in this text ) there is a video that teaches one to read, and for position ( see P16. ) & many other things one ought to read for examole my texts, for example this Christmas gnome skills text. But these are not met people, these are impressions of what kinds of people might be somewhere near by momentarily. And if it is a nursing professional messing with your lufe, putting it ashtray, you should ask: " How does this what you do heal? When you count all the effects of what you do, does it heal, what does it heal? If it does not heal, you ought not do it based on your rights as a nursing professional." 

P32.   Some say that at indoors the walls can be somehow unhealthy, lack of luck, lack of energy, something of the kind. Maybe it is a question of choosing a nice apartment, but i haven't noticed such. But i always leave room to nesr the walls, except when i lean on a wall, since i was taught as a child that small animals in apartments spend lots of time by the walls and near the legs of stools etc, and don't want to be distyrbed. Besides a human uses a kind of round srea of space around one's body and that is goos to notice in thinkibg of how rooms are used, since it brings a more lufe like atmosphere, more benefical to life than square forms. Besides, my dogs were interested in making the walls nicer, said the walls connect with the house repairs man. I also classify heavy and mostly unmoving furniture, room plants etc parts of the landscape in a room and not just the walls, but i do have some drawers etc by the walls, and so the landscape is much more complex and tastes more like life.

P33.   If your country lacks some good side that life needs, it is often so much connected with ways of living, that you need to get it via some country and culture that you love, since it may demand lots of cultural influencies to ways of living. 

P34.   21st of October 2022   Nursing & other institution like working places may have a lack of energy, good luck and quality. As far as i know, it is a result of a too narrow rigid stuck not so intellugent way of thinking that does not so well manage to arrange things well for life. The form of attention may be lacking too. My thinking course quickerlearning.blogspot.com and some more complex healthy kind of pictures on walls could maybe help in that, likewise healthy ways of livibg and not working as so tired, plus civiliced wisdom.

P35.   Good will is easiest to find in small amounts, at a civiluced distance. If one trues to find from oneself a lit of good will, one maybe starts treat others aggressively, as if failing to say thst this work should end. So better to just arrange things well while keeping a civiluced distance. 

P36.   It may be a spiritual side effect instead of real animals present, but disturbing sounds often get quieter and nicer, if one expresses the wish that only tge mist beautiful songs loudly, and them too only part of the time since we have also other thibgs to do than lustening to a concert, however beautiful it may be. 

P37.   In military institutions the problem that brings a lack of luck etc, is as far as i know the technical ways to think. One should instead use objective landscape like views like my thinking course teaches, and follow beautiful values. 

P38.   Places that are not cared to beingvgood for lufe, have often a not-so-good atmosphere and a lack of luck, one for example does not get refreshed when one spends time in them. Making a home good for life is from which one can copy things to value. Having some nature or at least unpainted natural materials is important too. 

P39.   These two ought to be globally possible, but the third is just our climate zone. If these gnome kind of things appear too fine, try to get used to such possibility, since in the removed texts at sekundablogi.blogspot.com there are many music like, but some were too local and had to be removed from there too.

Young people playing leisurely football on a summer evening and sun shining from a tilted angle. Walking by and pausing momentarily to see them enjoy their time, the ground covered by lawn.
Or young animals or a few people on a safe spot with fresh green grasses, getting a chance to wander there in the nature as a loose group, the sun shining from a quite tilted angle.

Now here in Finland it is different. One needs to think when going to outdoors, that healthily sportily i meet the autumn wind, with fallen autumn leaves around, trying to learn a quite sporty way of wandering outdoors in the autumn landscape.
