Finland is not an intermediate form between neighbouring countries but instead of it's own kind

 Quite often foreigner guess that smaller countries are intermediate forms between neighbouring countries on either side, but at least in Finland that is not so. Finland is of it's own kind and it may be that also elsewhere in the world counties develop each into theor own direction,since if one lives in one country but is not fitted to it's culture in some respect, one starts to search for a better place for a person with such an understandable and well motivated characteristc, and usually one first searches also from the neighbouring countries, and so they have some pressure to turn to well understandable valued opposites of some characteristics of the neighbouring countries, like Finns have for example good quality rationality of one's own supported by civiliced wisdom and complete freedom of individuals inside the rules civiliced wisdom gives.

11th of May 2024   Foreigners often mistake that Finland ought to be like Sweden and copy from it's culture. They think tgat since both are small countries in North Europe, they ought to be alike. But since 1100's, since the times when a Finnish peasant? Lalli, still much wise in nature's ways, killed a Swedish bishop on the ice of a lake or the sea, who was bringing much too unwise culture to Finland, it seems so that for already about a thousand years Sweden has been starting invading Finland culturally. And so Finland has at some times been under Swedish rule, many of the inhabitants even of Swedish origin, but Finland as a geopolitical location is so different, that the Swedish cannot recognize those who were originally Swedish. If one looks at the map, Sweden is a small country separated from Norway by a mountain range in between, and from the other nations by the sea and by the mostly uninhabitated north. So who actually needs to defend Sweden? On the other hand, Finland is a quite small country between Russian and a bay of the Atlantic sea. So very many would pay attebtion to what it affects the world politics if Finland were invaded by some groups and in which ways it was invaded and what is the world situation then. Since such matters do affect the countries a lot, Finland is in character a different location from Sweden, and if those were of the same country, the parts would meet different kind of attention and different demands on the culture there.

Choosing a climate to live in

What the climate is like affects the ways of living. It affects the rythm of life, the types of thinking, the character, the type of pleasantness of living, the type of social contacts, the ways of taking care of things, values, dimesnsions etc. So in a way one's character and wishes, one's values, liked ways determine which climate one ought to live in, since such ways are not possible everywhere. Instead oneought to choose wisely based on what one wishes for and not just guessing based on the atmosphere of some words or thoughts in the original climate.

19.11.2023   This one piece of climate skills of mine seems to suit all climates. Please adapt it to your own climate and culture and ask from someone who likes music, and maybe some motipn, beauty of nature and reads the newspaper or the like there.

W9.   As far as I understand body heat regulation and other bodily regulation and wisdom about states of mknd and of feelings, works best if one has natural kind of sporty and musical muscle tone and postures gotten some view of nsturality from how plants' branches grow toward light, toward better life. Then one can for examole according to the situation tune the thus naturally kept parts of the body toward heating or cooling, do so by paying attention to temoeratures and needs of warmth or cooling, and kind ofcreligiously musically wish and inform those naturally wise parts of the body that they should cool or warm.

From my text Skills of Christmas gnomes, learntalents.blogspot.com .



Northern North America, i.e. Alaska and Canada seem concentrated mistly on bearing the winter cold. So instead of many seasons they seem to live as if they had just one or two seasons of the year: a long winter plus some times when the snow has melted but not like a real flourishing season in atmosphere. 

Here in the North Europe there are four seasons of the year and weather skills mean that one ought to spend some time outdoors every day of the year, and since the weathers, time of the year and of the day and the nature vary a lot, there is a multitude of possible weather experiences during the year and of weather skills too.

My own melodies about harmony

"Melodies about harmony
This is a harmony of a choir singing some familiar song, it's harmony from which one canlearn to live in harmony. It's for many people from many continents in Europe or in connection with Europen culture.
(I came to think of it in connection with the Eurovision song contest. The four parts of equal lenght are: 1.  theory, 2. practice, 3. ideals and 4. collecting them all together to living teh daily life.)


This second one is the same for birds in the trees:


This is an old melody of mine about finding how people support from their heart a good future for the world, for the present and future generations:


This is a some kind of attempt at harmony like in this summer time opera festivalt own Savonlinna that I live in:

Sisu

"10th of May 2020   There is a traditional Finnish character trait called "sisu" which means to try and try again and again so that one gets the task done, for example wandered some distance or succeeded in agriculture. It is often also about learningf things. It does not mean suffering, even though the situations can be difficult, but instead it means new beginnings with one's wisdom of life and with short pauses of rest in between. The main thing is to try again and thios time with a better wisdom of life. Wisdom of life is such that you find it when you lket go of habits and try in healthy ways and concentrate on healthy kind of influences like for example nature and civiliced wisdom and feelings with healthy spirit. Tiredness and getting stuck to habits may obscure such wisdom, but with a short pause, relaxing to rest and can get more energy and refreshed have a fresh view and so one succeeds better when one takes the healthy spirited ideals in everything to be one's guide."
