Problems

The famous Muumi books of Tove Jansson are of Swedish speaking Finns and Swedes, especially so the emphazis some lay on Muumis looking like very fat people. Swedish speaking Finns typicallya s a culture copy Swedish ways, not Finnish. Swedes do not emphasize healthy ways of living, truth and good moral enough, and so they often are continually hungry. Finnish speaking majority culture of Finland is not so hungry since it values healthy ways of living, good moral, things being real, and happy allowing ways and the own understanding of each together with civilized ways. And so Finns eat just about always as much as they like, except that not always as good food as they would like, since they do not have the money for it, but mostly they have chosen their ways of living and in them is that amount of food which brings them greatest well being, and so they are centered on all kinds of good things in their lives and what the world needs from the point of view of civilized wisdom and not especially much on food only. Finnish speaking Finns value children and animals, both are taken as persons to conversate with, likewise many kinds of people that behave in civilized ways.

Finland has once won the Eurovision Song contest and it was with the song Hard Rock Hallelujah, which too is not typical Finnish.

19.4.2020   Maybe soem search for some kind of ideal of harmonical everyday life in the Finnish way from the Muumis, which though are an invention of one person only. A better source for such would be the traditional Finnish tale figure tonttu, gnome, much like Christmas gnomes which deliver the presents and make presents year around in their working spot. I wrote something about the skills of gnomes, it is mostly links though, please click the interesting links: http://learntalents.blogspot.com/2018/09/gnomes-or-more-likelily-doing-things-in.html .
